It is chocolate lava! LOL! It bubbles in the pan with the consistency of lava, and it kinda felt like it when I took a large sip too soon while it was still extremely hot. This is so delicious! I added about 1/8 tsp. of vanilla and a very small pinch of salt to add some depth....I just had plain Hershey's cocoa so I wanted to help it along. Also, I just put everything in a small saucepan at one time--didn't even preheat the half-n-half--whisked briskly until everything was incorporated and the chocolate chips melted--and it worked fine. Nothing scorched. I didn't even crush the chips beforehand. This is a fantastic way to start the day, and so much better than going out to Starbucks, whom I think had a product like this at one time. I wonder what it would taste like with just a pinch of instant coffee or espresso added to it. Mmmm..... FWIW, I used fat-free half and half. That brought the calories down to 440 per serving.

A bona fide pleaser. Very thick and incredibly tasty. More than a beverage...I'd classify this as a dessert! The cinnamon tips this over to gourmet. Made for PRMR.

Wow ... This is for hardcore chocolate lovers ONLY! Mine turned out like the photo 2bleu took and tasted like the outcome of puting a pan of brownies in a juicer. I didnt have the dark chocolate discs, so I used dark chocolate cocoa powder, two tablespoons of oil, a few more tablespoons of sugar, 2% instead of half and half, and a pinch of salt. MAYBE it was because of my cocoa powder, but it was super thick! Took care of my chocolate craving for until next month! lol Thank you 2bleu

Very rich and chocolaty.It is like drinking chocolate velvet. A small cup is all that is needed but what a tasty little drink for after a meal instead of a dessert. Made for TYM tag
