When it is cold outside or after a long walk, I love to drink a nice hot chocolate. My grandmother's recipe is my favourite! First, she takes four or five chocolate squares. Then, she heats some milk in a saucepan. She adds the pieces of chocolate to the warm milk and she stirs slowly. I love watching while the chocolate melts! At the end, she adds some cinnamon. It is really delicious!

I'll be right with you...
