Hot Chocolate – NSVhol

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 2 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Beverages

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 pint Milk
3 ounces Imported chocolate (milk — chocolate or semi-sweet)

Pour 1/4 cup of the milk into a small, thick-bottomed pot. Break the chocolate
into small bits and add to the milk in the pot. Over very low heat, let the
chocolate melt, then pour in the rest of the milk, bit by bit, whisking well
with each addition. When the chocolate is melted and the milk faintly
steaming, remove from the heat, beat vigorously with a whisk until frothy, and
serve.

Variations: A small amount of chocolate-based liqueur, such as Cheri-Suisse,
Vandermint, or Droste Bittersweet is liked by some. Of course, unsweetened
baking chocolate can be used instead. Use the same proportion: 1 1/2 oz.
chocolate per cup of milk and sweeten to taste.

WHOLE WHEAT MUFFINS

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 c Flour, whole wheat
2 tb Oil
1 t Baking powder
1 t Baking soda
1 Eggs
2 tb Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
1 1/2 c Milk, sour
1/2 c Raisins — chopped (opt)

Preheat oven to 425. Mix all dry ingredients
thoroughly (do not sift); add shortening, egg, and
sour milk. Beat only until smooth. Fill well-oiled
muffin tins 2/3 full. Bake about 25 minutes.

If sour cream is used, omit 1/2 shortening.

Sylvia’s comments: the batter was too liquidy, and the
baking times were too long. I’ll use 1/4 c less
liquid next time. They were done after 20 minutes.
They also stuck to the paper liners, so need more oil.
