- there are only a handful of ingredients -
You would double this recipe to make 2 good sized mugs.
Combine all ingredients, everything into one pot...make sure you add the vanilla,
adding vanilla really elevates the flavor of hot chocolate.
The aroma of this simering on the stove is intoxicating.
Top with one of these...
I made these "toppers" to place on top of the hot cocoa, so it would feel extra special.
To make these toppers, swirl whipped cream from the can, onto a plate,
topped with jimmies, sanding sugar and snow flakes.
Place them into the freezer until your hot chocolate is ready.
One or two on top...
our special hot cocoa was amazing, so rich, so creamy and chocolatey...it was on the "Winter Bucket List" so I just had to make it!
And speaking about the Bucket List, here's a peek at what we have done so far.
This is a picture of my Bucket List Calendar.
I really enjoyed this calendar throughout the year and ordered another for 2026.
It comes with bucket list suggestions and stickers.
I use the stickers they provide and stickers from my scrapbooking collection.

That homemade cocoa looks delicious, Debbie, and while I have made a similar recipe in the past, recently I’ve used the Swiss Miss Decadent Dark Chocolate (just add hot water) brand, adding some half & half with whipped cream topping. That is a fun calendar too. We’re leaving the decos up a bit longer as they were put up later.
O.k. that hot cocoa looks amazing! I love the idea of whip topping, thanks for sharing.
