Ingredients

  1. 3 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted
  2. 2 cups milk
  3. 1 cup half-and-half
  4. 1/2 cup good-quality bittersweet chocolate chips
  5. 1/2 cup good-quality semisweet chocolate chips
  6. 1 teaspoon sugar
  7. 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
  8. Whipped cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. For the chocolate decorations: Put the melted chocolate into a pastry bag and snip off a tiny hole at the tip. Pipe lacy chocolate designs–just larger than the tea cups you’re using–onto a baking mat or piece of parchment paper. Allow to set completely.
  2. For the hot chocolate: Combine the milk and half-and-half in a small saucepan. Warm over medium-low heat, then stir in the bittersweet and semisweet chocolate chips, sugar and vanilla, heating until melted and combined. Transfer the mixture to a teapot.
  3. To serve: place a lacy chocolate piece over each tea cup and pour over the hot chocolate. When the chocolate has melted into the cup, top with the whipped cream and enjoy.
