TO DIE FOR HOT CHOCOLATE
This is probably the richest cup of hot chocolate that I have ever had! We made it with milk and used a French vanilla flavor creamer. Perfect for a sleigh ride or a cuddle by the fire. (Would make a great gift, too!)

Steps:
- 1. Stir together all ingredients in a a LARGE bowl (preferably one with a lid for freshness). I use a tupperware layer cake saver as my bowl and the bottom as my lid. It takes some time to really get all this incorporated well, but make sure you do!
- 2. For each individual serving put 1/3 cup mix in a large (minimum 8 oz, but more along a 10 oz) coffee cup, add mix before adding either water or milk, heat to desired temperature and stir until chips melt, add extra marshmallows on top or whipped cream. We prefer to use milk because it is richer and creamer.
- 3. This is great as a gift for friends or neighbors in decorative tins or glass jars for Christmas. Be sure to include on your gift tag how much is needed per serving. ENJOY! If you put this in an airtight container it will last approximately 1 yr.
HOT COCOA TO DIE FOR
It's Christmas in July!!! This is the ONLY way I make cocoa. It's rich, decadent and a special treat...winter OR summer (in the air conditioning of course).

Steps:
- In desired drinking mug, combine all ingredients and stir until smooth. Should have consistency slightly runnier than cake frosting.
- Add hot water...whisk until frothy. I know adding the peppers sounds weird...but you can't tell it's specifically in there. It just adds depth and a little "bite".
- Can top it off with mini marshies or whipped cream...but seriously, it doesn't need it.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the hot chocolate will be. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Don't boil the milk: Boiling the milk will make the hot chocolate taste burnt. Instead, heat the milk until it is just simmering.
- Add flavorings: You can add a variety of flavorings to your hot chocolate, such as vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, or peppermint extract.
- Top it off: Serve your hot chocolate with whipped cream, marshmallows, or grated chocolate.
Conclusion:
Hot chocolate is a delicious and comforting drink that is perfect for a cold winter day. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you love. So next time you're looking for a warm and cozy drink, give hot chocolate a try.
