    Simply delicious. I used 1% milk along with the half and half. Also used the 3-pack Callbaut chocolate bars (72% dark and milk chocolate from Trader Joe's and used all of them. The result was luxurious and complex, great depth of flavor. Kudos to Ina, once again! Note: don't skimp on the quality of the chocolate. First time I used Ghirardelli and it was good; with the Callebaut it's phenomenal.

    It remains me of cold winters that my
    mom or Grandma made Hot Chocolate and told old family stories.
