Mayan Chocolate Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the hot chocolate mix, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper together in a mug.
• Pour the milk into a glass measuring cup; heat in microwave on High until it begins to boil, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour over the mixture in the mug, stirring with a small whisk as you pour. Enjoy immediately.

Steps:

• - line a pie plate with wax paper, hanging over the edges for "handles".
• - mix together crust ingredients and press into the bottom and sides of the pie plate.
• - slice bananas and layer over top of the crust and up the sides.
• - mix together cream cheese, Cool Whip and cinnamon, then fold in the chocolate chips.
• - Put it in the freezer overnight to freeze.
• - When ready to serve, take out of freezer and grab the wax paper "handles" to remove pie to a cutting board.
• - Use a hot knife to slice into 8 and serve drizzle with chocolate syrup and crushed walnuts!

Steps:

• Sift the cocoa powder and flour.
• Measure out 4 cups of milk. From the 4 cups of milk, slowly whisk about 1/4 cup of it, a little more if necessary, into the cocoa/flour mix until it becomes a paste. If you add milk too fast, you get clumpy cocoa. If that happens, use a hand blender to smooth it out.
• When all the cocoa and flour are a paste (no more dry flour,) add the remaining spices (sugar, nutmeg, cloves, peppers, and cinnamon).
• Heat the rest of the 4 cups of milk in a double-boiler or a saucepan over medium.
• Add the cocoa/flour/spices mix to the hot milk in the double-boiler. Stir constantly to keep it from burning.
• If you prefer a slightly thicker drink, you can add the optional cornstarch/water mixture now. Continue stirring on the heat until it's to your desired thickness. Not too long; you don't want to be forced to use a knife and fork. ;D.
• When the cocoa is ready (it takes about 10-15 minutes until the flavor and heat level are *just right*), strain the cocoa in a fine sieve to remove the cloves and cinnamon pieces. (Careful, it could splatter - I found out last night. *grrr*) Then add the powdered sugar and vanilla and stir.
• If you like, you can put whipped cream on top, add small marshmallows, or add a stick of cinnamon for stirring.
