quick, while it's still cold out!


I made an amazing, grown ups only, hot cocoa last night. Here's the recipe. I had never actually made hot cocoa from scratch. Ahhhmazing! I think Andrew liked it. It was hard to tell, although we can add "hot beverages" to the list of food stuffs he doesn't like. "It has to be lukewarm, almost cold, for me to drink it." That's a direct quote.

you've gotta try it with chopped up bittersweet chocolate & whole milk sometime too!

Once you've had hot cocoa from scratch- you'll never go back to the mix. :)

We used to make this in college and called it a snuggler - fond memories :) thanks for reminding me - we have plenty of cold weather ahead ...

just discovered you/your polaroids/your foodie becomingness. i too enjoy a good cuppa cocoa-from-scratch. and am pretty sure my BF has said the exact same thing about wanting hot beverages to be barely warm when drinking them. it's madness, no?
