I LOVE HOT CHOCOLATE!
And when I saw that this book had multiple ways of making delicious hot chocolate and cider I knew I wanted to review it!
The book starts with a recipe using Nutella to make hot chocolate...I am totally hooked!
There are so many recipes in here:
*Frozen Hot Chocolate
*Hot Vanilla Chocolate
*Butterscotch Hot Chocolate
*Eggnog Hot Chocolate
*Pumpkin Pie White Hot Chocolate
*Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate
*Peppermint Hot Chocolate
*and Orange Hot Chocolate just to name a few...
I am not a big cider person so I haven't tried any of those recipes yet, but let me tell you they do look good; especially the Hot Caramel Apple Cider :)
There are also ideas for mix-ins and toppings to help you celebrate with your very own Hot Chocolate or Hot Apple Cider Bar...fun, fun idea!
And there is a recipe in here to make Hot Chocolate Truffles...these would make great gifts!
You mix all the ingredients, let it cool, refrigerate, scoop out with a cookie scoop, roll in crushed peppermint candy canes (or other fun treats), wrap in plastic, and freeze. When you are ready for a cup of hot chocolate you simply pour a cup of milk into a mug, drop two unwrapped truffles into the milk and heat in the microwave....WOW!
Don't let the winter months give you a chill...
"Warm Up Your Winter" with these amazing recipes....
