Well it's Christmas Eve, Eve if that makes any sense at all.....and boy do we have snow!!! It is expected that we will get 10-20 cm of snowfall in two days. That's right folks! We get issued a "snowfall warning" here but we never get snow days no matter how much it snows or how cold it gets. It's amazing really. Regardless, I thought the kids, the new pup and I would get out and enjoy the abundant fall of flakes.
And then had some homemade hot chocolate to finish a wonderful time outside !
For the recipie I used the basic Fry's Cocoa recipie but altered it to my own:5 tsp cocoa powder
8-10 tsp organic sugar ( to your taste )
1 tbl vanilla extract
1 c. cream
4 c. milk
I also added a dash of nutmeg. You can take out the cream if you like and just use milk, however, we all know cream makes it taste better!
Take a couple tablespoons of the milk and mix it with the powder mixture and then add it to the milk. Heat on stove and voila!
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
