Hot Chocolate

 

This creamy and rich hot chocolate was definitely worth the 40 minutes that it took to make it. We decided to create a delicious peppermint hot chocolate by adding a couple drops of peppermint extract to our hot chocolate mix. Making the hot chocolate was a simple but kind of slow process...well slower than a hot chocolate powder anyways.

The base of the hot chocolate was cocoa powder and sugar mixed in with water. We heated that on a saucepan and then added in milk for that creamy taste. At this point, it smelled really amazing!

After letting that heat up, we used a ladle to ladle the hot chocolate into mugs. This is what our hot chocolate looked like! Overall, I thought that the hot chocolate was really yummy but I found that the marshmallows were way too sweet which gave me a bit of a stomach ache.
