Well, yes, but that's not what I was going for. |
They had a delicious Mayan Hot Chocolate (I have no actual proof that this is true, just work with me). So as the world self-destructs on the 21st, raise a glass (quickly) and toast to not having to pay off the mortgage!
Mayan Hot Chocolate (via Relish.com)
Ingredients
•
1 small butternut squash
•
2 1/2 cups 1 percent milk, divided
•
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
•
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
1 pinch nutmeg
•
1 pinch cardamom
•
Grated semisweet chocolate for garnish
1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Cut squash in half; place halves, cut sides
down, in a roasting pan. Add water to a depth of 1-inch. Bake 30 minutes,
or until squash is tender. Discard seeds, and scoop out pulp to measure 2/3
cup. Puree squash with 1/2 cup milk in a food processor until smooth.
3. In
a large saucepan, mix remaining 2 cups milk, chocolate and spices. Heat over a
double boiler or in a heavy-bottomed pan, stirring constantly until chocolate is
melted and creamy. Remove from heat and whisk in pureed squash mixture. Reheat.
