Hey, We Got It... Hot Chocolate!

Warm beverages on a cold winter's night is ALWAYS a good idea!  During the Christmas season, my sisters and I love to have movie nights. Now,  the movies are great, but usually the star of the evening are our piping hot mugs of hot cocoa!  Hot chocolate is a staple in our house, we stalk up just before winter.   I want to share with you my favorite hot cocoa recipe:

What You'll Need:
​
1 packet of Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate
1 to 2 Lindt Lindor Dark Chocolate Truffles
1 tsp of vanilla extract
2 1/2 tsp of cinnamon sugar
1 cup of vanilla almond milk

How to Prepare:

Pour the almond milk into a pot over medium high heat. Let the milk warm all the way through until frothy.  Lower the heat slightly and whisk in the hot chocolate packet. One the hot chocolate is fully dissolved in the milk, add the chocolate truffles and whisk until fully melted. Then add and whisk the vanilla extract and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon sugar.  Once the drink is beverage is heated all the way through and slightly frothed, take off the heat and pour into your favorite mug.  

I like to top mine with whipped cream and sprinkle a half teaspoon more of cinnamon sugar.  

Enjoy!
