How do you like your Hot Chocolate?

[fklwmn]

cool whip!! or, if i have it - ice cream!! yummy... If I am really in a pinch (or if I'm picking some up @ the local wawa...) cold whole milk will do as well.

Hot chocolate, marshmallows, whipped cream, chocolate flake.
All served in a soup-bowl sized mug. Yum 

Weird as it may sound, it is divine with a bit of horlicks whipped in too.

The best Hot Chocolate I have found around here is made by Twinings.  It's not a mix, but chocolate shavings, and I make it with hot 2% milk, no whipped cream......yum.

I love it dark and rich and at just the right temperature that when you put ice cream in it doesn't melt too fast.

I don't drink alcohol before noon (very often), so in the evenings I put some ameretto in it. 

This sure got my tastebuds going.

In the mornings at work, I like to take powdered hot chocolate mix and make my coffee with it.  It's wonderful.

Oh, when that cold weather hit Texas last week I had lots of hot chocolate too! I usually just use whole milk and something like NesQuik, with whipped cream. Sometimes I add instant coffee for a mocha-like drink. But when I go to Starbucks the only hot chocolate I get is the peppermint flavored.

Where did you find this? I'm always on the look out for fancier Hot Chocolates but all our local stores carry is Swiss Miss and Nestles.

DH had a school friend that works for Twinings and she brought us a huge bag full of loose teas, packaged teas, and the tin of Hot Chocolate.....here's the website link http://shop.twiningsusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=60.  I'm not sure if our local stores carry it either, but you can order direct from the site.  It's fantastic!

I add white chocolate-flavored Irish cream liquor.

Butterscotch schnaps.  Like, Buttershots.  Trust me.

I like my hot chocolate made with very good shaved chocolate, real milk, and, if I'm feeling indulgent, half and half.

If I want to spike it, I like a dash of rum or brandy.

Williams Sonoma has a delicious hot chocolate, but it's only available seasonally.

Mexican chocolate with smoked dried pepper.  Sweet and hot and oh, so warming!

I have a friend who loves her hot chocolate with chili powder.

It totally warms you from the inside out.  Even better is when DH makes it, so I don't have to lift a finger
