The mercury levels are still low enough, and on these cold days something like hot chocolate to keep warm is welcomed. I made this keeping my kids in mind, and I am glad to say they loved it. This is not a unique recipe I am sure, but a gentle reminder in case you are missing it. A wonderful chocolaty drink! :-)
This is so good not only for the kids, you will enjoy it also. Smack!
Serve with some whipped cream on top
Or as it is !
Ingredients:
Semi Sweet Chocolate- 2 ounces
