Pat treated us to Salted Carmel Hot Chocolate

Starbucks Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate Copycat Recipe

2/3 cup whole milk

1/3 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup sugar

3 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped

3 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped

1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

1 tablespoon turbinado sugar crystals

1/4 cup whipped cream

2 tablespoons caramel syrup, divided

Bring the milk and cream to a simmer. Keep it just under a boil and stir in the chocolate until melted completely.

Add one tablespoon of the caramel syrup to a warm mug and swish it to coat the inside of the mug.

Carefully pour in the chocolate.

Top with whipped cream, add a drizzle of caramel, a sprinkle of the salt and a dusting of the turbinado crystals.

Enjoy the fact that while Starbucks *may* stop making this delicacy ... you never have to!

Thanksgiving Eve Happy Thanksgiving everyone - I'm going to start blogging!
