How To Make hot cocoa to die for
-
Step 1In desired drinking mug, combine all ingredients and stir until smooth. Should have consistency slightly runnier than cake frosting.
-
Step 2Add hot water...whisk until frothy. I know adding the peppers sounds weird...but you can't tell it's specifically in there. It just adds depth and a little "bite".
-
Step 3Can top it off with mini marshies or whipped cream...but seriously, it doesn't need it.
- Last Step: Don't forget to share! Post a picture of your finished recipe here and on your favorite social network. Don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes!
