I tried. I really did. I do not buy any junk food to keep in my house, because I will EAT IT ALL, most likely in one sitting. I know I’m a freak of nature. A few nights ago I had a very strong craving for something sweet. Me being who I am, I destroyed my cabinets searching for something to munch on. I had a half bag of semi sweet chocolate chips. Das it! I decided against eating them out the bag and this recipe was born! Here’s what you'll need:

  • 12 ounces goats milk
  • 4 ounces half and half or heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 shot of chocolate bourbon
  • Marshmallows

Heat the milk and cream, don't boil it! Add the cocoa powder and mix until combined. Add half the chocolate chips and stir until fully melted and incorporated. Taste for sweetness/chocolatetiness and add the rest of the chocolate chips. Stir until everything is combined. At this point add sugar if you want it to be sweeter. Pour it up, pour it up and you're done!

OR you can add a shot of bourbon or marshmallow rum. And of course you have to add marshmallows on top! So good.
