Silver Lining: How-To: A Hot Chocolate Bar

How-To: A Hot Chocolate Bar



Recently I've discovered my love for hot chocolate {especially with peppermint candy canes melted into it...}. So when I invited a few neighborhood friends to come over, I knew it would be the perfect thing to do on a Monday night. 


What I had:
Stephen's Milk Hot Chocolate Mix
Stephen's Mint Truffle Hot Chocolate Mix
candy canes
mini marshmallows
chocolate-covered cinnamon bears
whipped cream
sprinkles
mint cookies


Then I added a few Santas and some pom poms for decoration. Each guest brought their favorite Christmas mug and we sat around sipping them {and topping off the marshmallows again and again and again}. Et voila! A hot chocolate bar. It would be fun to put this in a tray and leave it up all season so guests can help themselves when they visit.

P.S. Mugs and Santa c/o Julie

What else would you add?
And uh, want to come over?

  4. My favorite Stephen's hot chocolate is Irish Cream. But I don't think they make it anymore. Sadness...
