The Best Hot Chocolate

Here’s a Hot Chocolate recipe you’ll want to bookmark for sure, because there’s nothing better than a nice cup of hot cocoa, during the cold winter month of December.  And this recipe has got everything you’d expect any great recipe to have, including a creamy Marshmallow taste and a nice airy froth.  It’s very easy to make and it’s perfect for this Holiday Season.

I came up with this idea when I was getting Hot Chocolate, for my kids, at a local gas station.  You know how they have those motorized dispensers with different flavors; mint, pumpkin spice and toasted marshmallow.  It was the Marshmallow that caught my eye.  Not that I wouldn’t enjoy the other flavors too, it’s just what my kids chose and what I always enjoyed.  After we rang out, I realized it was something I needed to put together because $2.50 for an 8 oz. cup just isn’t savvy.

Hot Chocolate Ingredients:

4 tbsp Cocoa Powder, unsweetened
4 tbsp Sugar
1/8 tsp Salt
2 cups Milk
1/2 tsp Vanilla

Toasted Marshmallow
1/4 cup French Vanilla Coffee Creamer
1/4 cup Marshmallows

Update: Running low on milk, I’ve since cut the milk in half and replaced that half with water and to my surprise, I thought the recipe tasted even better.  So, it might be something you’d like to consider.  Just be sure to watch the short Hot Chocolate video tutorial and I’ll show exactly how to make this recipe.
