How could you not love this? It was very chocolately, and not too sweet. I did not use the vanilla beans or cinnamon stick. Will definitely make again! Thanks Ina!

It was definitely hot, and chocolate. It just wasn't what I think of when I think of hot chocolate. I think the milk chocolate made it too sweet or something. It tasted more like a melted candy bar. Perhaps the recipe with half of the chocolate would be better?
