Decadent Hot Chocolate

*Picture provided by Sarah Valente.

From: KingdomTwindom.com

Ingredients:

milk

water

hot cocoa mix

chocolate chips

kosher marshmallows

peppermint candy cane

How To:

I've lost the original link to Sarah's version of this, so I start by heating water in a teapot, while at the same time, filling about a third of the mug with milk. Heat the milk so it's steaming hot. Add your desired amount of hot cocoa and mix until smooth. Then add the water when it's hot enough. Drop in a small handful of chocolate chips and stir so they melt. Top with marshmallows and mix it with a candy cane.

I'm no chef. I've been known to ruin soup. You know... the kind that comes in a can and all you have to add is water and heat. Yeah, that kind. ...I HAVE improved in the last few years.

If there are too many ingredients, I probably won't try it. I cut lots of corners and I rarely follow the recipe to the T - even if it's my own.

I'm usually cooking with at least one boy and a dog underfoot, and a few years ago, I was looking for a way to have my recipes accessible by computer with pictures and an easy archive. I have enough things to chase after without adding a mis-placed paper recipe covered in tomato sauce to the list. This seemed like the easiest way to do it.

Happy cooking!
