This scrumptious barbecue sauce for ribs is exactly like the kind served at a well-known restaurant in Montreal, Quebec, where customers line up on the sidewalk every night of the week. Try it; you’ll love it! Never omit cinnamon or lemon juice. Serve the leftover sauce as additional sauce for those who prefer their ribs to flow with taste after simmering it until the sugar has completely dissolved.

Reviews
It was a little bit too much chocolate. Otherwise the recipe was good and we liked the whipped cream and the nutmeg on the top.
I think you could have added more chocolate and put less chocolate. We put whip cream to add more taste and ground cinnamon.
Oh my! This is sooooo good. I used a whole, heaping tablespoon of homemade pumpkin purée from kuri pumpkins. I also used dark chocolate and homemade whipped cream. I then proceeded to pour it in one cup and drink it all myself. I ain’t sharin’ this with anyone. This drink will turn you into the Grinch who stole the hot chocolate. Thank you for this recipe.
Love this! I am a pumpkin spice addict so I added 2 1/2 teaspoons of pumpkin puree instead of 1 1/2. Other than that, it was absolutely delicious.
I enjoyed this recipe but I did double the pumpkin. Will make again.
Super yum!!!
Thank you very much for posting this recipe. I can`t believe the pumpkin/chocolate combination is so good. This hot chocolate is just fabulous. I have never thought it has pumpkin in it.
Very good, but it is a little on the sweet side – and thats coming from a person who loves his sweets! Will be making again.
Mmmmm…….Chocolate Ganache in a glass! If you like ganache, you will LOVE this hot chocolate! It’s very rich and perfect for a special occasion. I honestly can’t say that I could taste the pumpkin, but the spice is definitely there and pairs nicely with the chocolate.
LOVED this! I used evaporated skim milk instead of heavy whipping cream, so good! I might try adding more pumpkin puree to make the pumpkin taste stronger.
I made this yesterday, and it is actually pretty good. I made a 1/2 recipe and just microwaved the ingredients. I realized too late, that I accidentally tripled the pumpkin spice but it didn’t seem to be a problem. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. I even added the optional topping of whipped cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg. I couldn’t really taste the pumpkin puree, after I added it, being such a small amount. The taste is good, just it’s kind of sweet for my tastes. However, I can see anyone that likes these flavors to enjoy this.
I wanted to make this into a Pumpkin Spice Mocha–what I did was use coffee in place of the whipping cream. I also topped it with Cool Whip. Good but could use more pumpkin flavor. I’ll try this again tomorrow but increase the amount of pumpkin puree by a couple tablespoons and re-review.
