TIPS
Keep the heat gentle — let it steam, not boil, so the mix thickens instead of scorching. Want it thicker, closer to a spoonable drinking pudding? Add another tablespoon of mix; looser, add a splash more warm milk. Booze-free version: skip the liquor and stir in a shot of brewed camp coffee for a mocha mudslide the whole crew can drink. A square of dark chocolate dropped in while it’s hot melts into extra richness. Best made fresh and sipped by the fire.
