    1      pint          Milk
    3      ounces        Imported chocolate (milk -- chocolate or semi-sweet)
 
 Pour 1/4 cup of the milk into a small, thick-bottomed pot.  Break the chocolate
 into small bits and add to the milk in the pot.  Over very low heat, let the
 chocolate melt, then pour in the rest of the milk, bit by bit, whisking well
 with each addition.  When the chocolate is  melted and the milk faintly
 steaming, remove from the heat, beat vigorously with a whisk until frothy, and
 serve.
 
  Variations: A small amount of chocolate-based liqueur, such as Cheri-Suisse,
 Vandermint, or Droste Bittersweet is liked by some. Of course, unsweetened
 baking chocolate can be used instead.  Use the same proportion: 1 1/2 oz.
 chocolate per cup of milk and sweeten to taste.
