Hot chocolate lovers
Ok, so I am a big hot chocolate person, expecially of course in our canadian winters Trying to find the best is hard *lol* yes, I am a geek.
Timmies, is the best, but as for store bought, PC's dark chocolate. Anyone try White hot chocolate? The best way to make hc is with chocolate milk. What is your favourite brand of HC?.... ACO22 |

Store bought? Carnation Rich chocolate (provided you use more mix than the can advises.
Best variation: chocolate sticks with mint inside. break up into pieces and add to chocolate mix, pour hot water over to melt chocolate mint sticks. Instant hot mint chocolate.

I've had White Hot Chocolate before it's pretty good! Second Cup Hot Chocolate with Whipped Cream and Chocolate Shavings and an Oatmeal Raisin cookie = FTW lol Have also had Candy Cane Hot Chocolate and that was awesome, believe it was from Starbucks? Or maybe Second Cup around Christmas time. And if you go to Demetre's I've had the Frozen Hot Chocolate as well, yum yum yum! Best store bought are the brands with the teeny marshmallows in the mix!

I'm not picky of the type of hot chocolate, as long as I'm using Mint Baileys to add to a cup! SOOO GOOD.

At home, I use Timmy's but top off with a lot of milk or 1/2&1/2 to reduce the sweetness. I also shamefully will put eggnog in my coffee this time of year when it starts showing up in the stores

Homemade is best, IMO. It doesn't take any more time than a mix you get at the store.
I LOVE eggnog with a bit of Kahlua mixed in. Kahlua is good with anything coffee/chocolate/ice cream/milk.

I had to go to the laundry mat today, and stopped to pick up some hot chocolate. I just got the Cornation Rich chocolate. Got home and just added hot water and is very good. I ususally put chocolate milk, instead of water, but thought that it would get too pricey..so water it will be *lol*

Ohhhhhhhh hot chocolate...yummmm
I don't have a favorite brand, as long as it's made with milk and it's rich and creamy with a bunch of whipped cream on top I'm happy.

Droste cocoa powder. Heat milk on stove. When milk is warm, add a few spoons of milk to the powder in the cup. Stir until you have a smooth paste. Add hot frothy milk when it is at your preferred temperature. Stir. Add sugar to taste. Top with (lots of) whipped cream. Dust with cocoa powder and cinnamon. Eat whipped cream first. Add more whipped cream, stir into hot chocolate. Sit down in an area where nobody can find you, or where nobody needs you. Enjoy.
