"Yum! I ended up using bittersweet chocolate chips(I was sure I had dark chocolate!) and almond milk. I didn't have any ground cardamom, so crushed a whole one and through it in. Great drink! Thanks! Made for Comfort Cafe-Snow Queens."

"This a 5 stars all the way. I used 1 oz of chocolate, and 1/4 tsp of cinnamon and fully expected to need to add a bit of sweetening. Happiness! not a grain was needed or even desired. I used top quality bittersweet chocolate and fat free soy milk. This yielded a rich, intensely satisfying cup of pure pleasure. The wee bit of pepper is lovely and I would recommend not to skip it. Very easy and it is without a doubt the very best chocolate that I have had in a long time! Made for Photo Tag."
