| (the perfect accompaniment to serve with churros) |
| |
| 1 pint | milk |
| 1 pint | half-and-half |
| 8 oz. | mexican chocolate |
| 4 oz. | bittersweet chocolate |
| |
| grind chocolate in a food processor and then bring milk to a boil. |

| blender after heating to create a frothy consistency.) |
