WHAT’S HAPPENING IN KC - MARCH
|
|
Luck ‘o the Irish, Basketball, see a Show or Concert, and Laugh a Little!
|
* RECIPE – Dreamy Decadent Hot Chocolate *
|
Mmmmmmm, chocolate! This comes as close to liquid pleasure as one can imagine. Liquid is a relatively loose term---this is so thick and rich it borders on edible vs. drinkable!
1/3 cup heavy cream
¾ cup whole milk
2 t powdered sugar
6 oz finely chopped 70% bittersweet chocolate
Combine heavy cream, milk and powdered sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until bubbles appear at the edge of the pan. Remove from heat and add chocolate, stirring constantly until chocolate is completed melted. Slowly pour into serving glasses. We recommended small brandy snifters.
Really want to kick into St. Patrick’s Day mode? Say “Cead Mile Failte” (A Hundred Thousand Welcomes) to your guests by adding a wee bit of Irish Cream (yes, the alcoholic version) to whipped cream and place a dollop of that atop the hot chocolate!

A hearty, warm delighted welcome to Dolores! We have known Dolores for years and still can’t believe our good fortune to have her here with us as part of the Southmoreland staff. Dolores is an Innkeeper on days and has already demonstrated wonderful attention to detail. She is a kind hearted, spunky woman who is quick with a laugh and eager to serve. Our blessings continue!
