Note: If you are cooking for a particular style of eating, please check all of your ingredients carefully.

Many of my recipes have alternatives, and you want to choose the alternatives that fit the style you are preparing. Also, packaged goods may have ingredients you wouldn’t expect. Soy sauce may or may not have gluten. Chocolate may or may not have dairy. This means you want to check the ingredients labels on the products you will use. Also, it’s important to be aware that if you are cooking for someone with allergies or other reasons to take special care, you should avoid cross-contamination. For example, don’t use the same utensil that was used in food containing the allergen or use the same cutting board that was used for food containing the allergen.

Notes

If the hot chocolate is too hot to drink, wait for it to reach drinking temperature before you add the whipped topping so the whipped topping doesn’t melt before you enjoy it.
The right amount of mocha or mint flavor depends in part how rich your chocolate is, and it also depends on how much mocha or mint flavor you like.  Start light and then add more if desired.
