I write this post with pink, cold cheeks and nose. I think I am smiling...still hard to feel my face. After a jaunt outside in 7 degree weather and blustery winds with my dad and dog, I came inside and knew what had to be done.
I am not going to use the standard rating scale with this hot cocoa, because I made it, but let me tell you....it's pretty amazing.
I made it from actual cocoa nibs melted in hot milk and topped it off with a heaping mound of marshmallows. I was going to make my very own homemade marshmallows last night with raw honey, gelatin, evaporated sugar cane and milk...but, things got a little crazy and I ended up not having time. In the near future I shall make them!
The making of:
The cocoa bits themselves--
Cocoa sprinkled into the warming milk--
Stirring--
Everything tastes better in a mustache mug! Look at how high the mountain of marshmallows is! Yum yum
All enjoyed on this cold winter day <3>
