Don't get me wrong, I'll still drink the hot water and powder. However, if you're drinking this for the sheer pleasure, its worth the extra few cents for the add ins.
mug
milk
chocolate chips
hot cocoa mix (at least 2-3 heaping spoons full)
whipped cream
candy cane is a good addition but entirely optional
Fill the bottom of your mug with chocolate chips and then poor milk into the mug most of the way up. Stick this in the microwave about 1 min 20 secs or until the milk is steamy but won't burn your tongue. Mix in the additional cocoa powder thoroughly (Stephen's is my favorite although I had Nestle's tonight and it was still good). Top it all off with a generous portion of whipped cream. Sip carefully and savor the journey. It starts of slightly cool and creamy and then as you progress further down the cup things become more rich and chocolaty. Don't forget to take breaks to just hold that warm mug and smell the cocoa. That's one of my favorite parts. Cheers everyone!!
