There is nothing better than a cup of delicious hot chocolate! It's perfect for cozying up under a warm blanket while watching a Christmas movie classic. Well, that's what we did last night and it's hard to beat. I like the simple things, what more can I say. I am out of hot chocolate a lot, since I find myself drinking at least one cup a day to stay warm....and I love chocolate! Here is an easy recipe you can make in bulk and store away for later use. It can be easier than buying those expensive canisters at the store over and over again! Trust me!
