One of the best things about fall is that it means more than just sweater weather and dusting off your boots. Instead, you get to fuel up on some cozy hot chocolate—especially when this tasty drink is spiced with pumpkin and fueled by coffee liquor!

¾ cup Water
3 tbsp. Cocoa powder
3 cups Whole milk
1 (3.2 ounce) 70% dark chocolate, chopped
2 tbsp. Canned pumpkin
2 tbsp. Pure maple syrup
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
2 tsp. Pumpkin pie spice
Pinch of sea salt
3 oz. Kahlua
Whipped cream for topping
Cinnamon sticks for garnish
Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan.
Add cocoa powder, whisking until dissolved. Add the milk, dark chocolate, pumpkin, maple syrup, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and salt and bring to a simmer.
Whisk continuously until chocolate has been melted properly. Stir in the Kahlua after.
Pour into mugs and top with whipped cream, a cinnamon stick, and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice and sea salt if desired. Serve immediately!
