Tis the season to cuddle up in front of the fireplace and enjoy a nice hot drink, and anyone who knows me knows that I’m a huge hot chocolate fan! Hot chocolate on its own is already ah-mazing, but if you’re looking to take your drinking experience to the “next level” , I suggest trying this simple but delicious recipe.
All you need is…
2 packets Swiss Miss milk chocolate packets + 2 cups milk+ cinnamon+ 2 shot glasses full of Bailey’s Vanilla Cinnamon
Now, to make this delicious drink, all you have to do is…
Heat up the milk. Once its warm, and right before it begins to boil (don’t overheat the milk), find your favorite mug and mix in the above ingredients!
Now, as an added bonus (but for me it’s pretty much also a requirement), I top it with homemade whipped cream! Also so easy to make.
All you need is…
1 cup heavy cream + 2 tablespoons sugar+ 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract+ a pinch of cinnamon
Literally, all you do is…
Add all of the ingredients to a mixer (shout out to my friends Ayesha and Stephan for the awesome Kitchenaid Artisan Series Mixer as a wedding gift…my favorite!) You’ll know its ready when the mixture turns from completely liquid to a fluffy consistency. WARNING! It’s extremely tasty!
Add your homemade whipped cream to your boozy hot chocolate, sprinkle a bit of cinnamon, and wa-la! Perfection in a mug.
Trust me, you’ll thank me later! Give it a try and let me know what you think!
Enjoy!
