I’ve made this hot chocolate recipe oodles of times.
Oodles.
Yet every time I make it (every winter for the past 8 years) I have to call my mom for the recipe. Maybe that’s just because it tastes better when mom makes it and I like her reassurance.
Or maybe I’m just forgetful.
Probably both.
Very few things can top this sweet, creamy delight. A hot cup of the best hot chocolate after a cold winter’s day can soothe the heart, soul, and chilly toes.
It’s not exactly fat free which is why I like to sip this while wearing my stretchy sweatpants. Those bad boys leave plenty of expanding room when my stomach is full.
I know. I’m classy like that.
It’s almost time for snow! Be sure you have your hot chocolate and stretchy sweatpants ready before the white stuff falls! Trust me. You can’t go wrong with this one.
