Candy Manor Peppermint Hot Chocolate
INGREDIENTS:
Whipped Cream:
1 cup (8 ounces) heavy cream, chilled
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract (recommended: Boyajian)
2 tablespoons crushed peppermint candy
Hot Chocolate:
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, grated
1 quart (32 ounces) whole milk
1/3 cup (3 ounces) sugar
1/3 cup (3 ounces) boiling water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon peppermint extract (recommended: Boyajian)
Candy canes, garnish
DIRECTIONS:
1. To make the whipped cream: Place the cream, powdered sugar and peppermint extract in a chilled mixing bowl, and beat on high speed until soft peaks form. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the crushed candy. Refrigerate the whipped cream.
2. To make the hot chocolate: Place the chocolate in a 2 1/2-quart metal mixing bowl. Place the bowl over (but not touching) a pan of simmering water. (The bowl will seem large, but you need the space to mix in the milk.) Stir the chocolate occasionally with a rubber spatula.
3. In the meantime, pour the milk into a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan. Whisk in the sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the milk begins to simmer and bubbles form around the edge. Turn off the heat.
4. When the chocolate has melted, reduce the heat so the water under the pan barely simmers. Pour the 1/3 cup of boiling water into the melted chocolate, and whisk or beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Dribble in the hot milk mixture as you whisk. When the ingredients are well incorporated, remove the bowl from the water bath, and stir in the vanilla and peppermint.
5. To serve, ladle the hot chocolate into mugs, and top with a generous dollop of the whipped cream. Garnish with a candy cane.

"Most girls look for so many things in a guy, a sense of humor, intelligence, a good smile, good lips, someone who can hold her, someone who will cherish her, and obviously someone who is decent looking. But isn’t that asking a lot? I’d be perfectly happy with a guy who truly loved me for me and wouldn’t try to change me into something I’m not."

"To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived - this is to have succeeded."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Wake her,
from this sea of white linens
extract the drugs from her dreams
&sew her seams with delicateness;
‘Cause beneath her chest sits the heart that I live for,
You’d kill for,
the angels would die for.
&with a subtle wink and a flutter of wings
they whispered,
I’ll hold your tears as a ransom
within the palm of my hand
and tell you once again
don’t tell me that you’re scared
Alert the sawbones,
tell them, that she’s not scared.
She’s got an army of saints armed with her prayers.
Wake the angels.
Tell them that she’s not scared;
She won’t be taking the next flight out of here
