Hot Chocolate 6 Ways
Here is the fun part! Flavors. Chocolate loves a good partner in crime. You can either customize the entire recipe of hot chocolate mix OR doctor up each mug individually. These are my favorites:
Peppermint mocha: add 2 tablespoons instant coffee (regular or decaf) to each recipe OR 1 teaspoon to each serving, garnish with a peppermint stick
Mexican hot chocolate: add 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon to each recipe OR 1/8 teaspoon (generous pinch) to each serving, garnish with a cinnamon stick
Double chocolate: add 1/4 cup of semi-sweet, dark chocolate, or white chocolate chips to each recipe OR 2 teaspoons to each serving
Dark chocolate/lower sugar: use 1/4 cup or 1/3 cup of sugar instead of the full 1/2 cup
Reese’s hot chocolate: add 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter to each recipe OR 2 teaspoons to each serving
Marshmallow dream: top each serving with a small handful of mini marshmallows
