12 Days of Hot Chocolate: The Dessert Truck

Editor's note: Everyday weekday until Christmas, we'll have a daily hot chocolate report for you. 'Tis the season. Today, the Dessert Truck, which scoots around Manhattan all week long.

The deal: If you like goopy, throat-coating, borderline soup consistency hot chocolate, this is for you. After just two sips, I felt like my chocolate intake had maxed out for the next year. Then my veins seemed to swell, and before I knew it, I felt borderline buzzed—as did fellow Serious Eater Robyn. Don't get me wrong, the chocolate quality is good, but as the menu professes, "this is the real deal." Do not order this if you're joking around. Made with Valrhona and Guittard chocolates and heavy cream, it's tough to finish off even if you're guilty of drinking brownie batters. I am still recovering with water.

oh, but one of the best things about this hot chocolate is that you can put it in the refrigerator and the next day you have the most delicious pot de creme you have ever tasted...thick, lovely, chocolate pudding, if you will.
