Chocolate caliente

Chocolate caliente
Yes. Genuine chocolate glue. These Spaniards, they know how to make a cup of hot chocolate. No messing around with powder and milk and dehydrated this or reconstituted that. Instructions: take bars of chocolate; melt; stick in cup. Well, OK, it's probably a bit more involved than that, but I care not a jot. Bring on the chocaldite.
