You know, the more I think of this quick tasty recipe I wonder if using a chocolate syrup (I’m thinking a thick chocolate from a pump dispenser bottle) could be used in lieu of the chips? Reason I wonder is a friend of mine swears by a certain coffee chain’s hot chocolate. She says the secret is in the syrup they use. Your recipe is pretty simple and sounds delicious. I wonder also if I could whip up more than one batch and keep the rest in the refrigerator for later use? All we need now is a few cinnamon biscotti for dunking!
