    In Colombia we drink hot chocolate for breakfast or late afternoon snacks all year round. Since moving to the Northeastern United States many years ago, there’s nothing like a cup of hot chocolate on a cold, winter day, especially if it's made with sweet and creamy dulce de leche!

    I am crazy for all things dulce de leche or arequipe flavored and it seemed only logical to pair it with a cup of hot chocolate. This is a very decadent version of hot cocoa. It’s thick, sweet and chocolatey.

    To serve it top with a dollop of whipped cream and drizzle with more dulce de leche!
