The 3rd of the month!

Hi Christmas-Junkies!

For the 3rd of the month I'm showing you how to make the perfect hot drink for a cozy, stay at home, day or evening. But be aware.. this stuff is so addictive!

 Peppermint Hot Chocolate

You will need:

a cup of milk

two candy canes (one to garnish)

chocolate powder (or real chocolate)

whipped cream

Small household plastic bag

1. Break up one candy cane in to the plastic bag.

2. Take a small sauce pan, or something else you could use to crush your candy, and smash your candy until it looks something like the picture below.

3. Now add milk, chocolate and your crushed candy cane (save about a table spoon to sprinkle on top at the end) to a small sauce pan and set to medium heat.

4. Stir during the whole heating up process, so the candy doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. Take your pan away from the heat when the milk is right before boiling.

5. Pour your hot chocolate in to your mug, add a ton of whipped cream and sprinkle with the rest of you crushed candy cane. And to make it look super pretty stick in an extra candy cane.

And you're done! ENJOY!

You could also make this hot chocolate with cinnamon or cherry candy cane!

Let us know how you liked it!

hugs and kisses,
Jeannine
