S'MORES HOT CHOCOLATE SHOTS

Steps:

• Using a small kitchen brush, add a little bit of caramel sauce to the sides of the shooter glass.
• Dredge the glass through a saucer of crushed Graham crackers. Set the glasses aside.
• In a saucepan over low-heat add chopped semi-sweet chocolate and stir until the chocolate melts, add the sugar and slowly begin to pour in the heavy cream, continue to whisk until the chocolate, sugar, and heavy cream are fully incorporated.
• Remove from heat.
• Very carefully add an half-ounce of Dark Chocolate Liqueur into each shooter glass, next add an ounce and a half of hot chocolate.
• Add a marshmallow on top and use a baker's torch to caramelize the marshmallow.
• Drizzle a bit of chocolate over the top of the marshmallow.
• Serve.

HOT CHOCOLATE SHOTS

Steps:

• In a saucepan, melt together the butter, sugar, ice cream, and baking chocolate until smooth. Whisk in the water and orange flavoring. Heat over medium-high heat, just until steaming. Serve with whipped cream and a sprinkling of orange zest and grated chocolate in chocolate-dipped shot glasses.
• To chocolate-coat the edges of your shot glasses, zap 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in a small, microwave-safe bowl just until melted. (The chocolate should be smooth and melty, but not hot. Overheating it wil cause the chocolate to mottle as it cools and hardens, so be careful that you only just microwave it until it's barely melted.) Dip the edges of each shot glass into the melted chocolate. Allow the chocolate to cool and harden before pouring hot cocoa into the glasses.

HOMEMADE HOT CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine sugar, cocoa, and salt, and whisk to combine well. Store the mixture in an airtight container.
• For individual servings, pour 1 cup whole milk into a microwave-safe mug, and microwave on high just until hot. Add 2 tablespoons of cocoa mix, and stir to dissolve. For a larger batch of cocoa, warm the milk in a saucepan set over medium-low heat, taking care not to let the milk boil; as it warms, stir in 2 tablespoons of mix for each cup of milk.
