The wind is blowing and it’s slowly driving me insane. That dull roar that just won’t end. It drives me up a wall. To distract myself I decided to make my easy homemade hot chocolate. I have this hot cocoa recipe that I love but when I just want hot chocolate in a hurry I use my homemade chocolate syrup, heat some milk, and have a nice warm sweet drink in no time.
I heat 8 ounces of milk and stir in a few tablespoons of chocolate syrup. While my milk is heating I like to whip some heavy cream to top my hot chocolate with, and in no time I have a quick easy hot chocolate that still doesn’t come from a packet. Even if I heat the milk in the microwave the cream can be whipped in no time and be ready with the milk.
To finish my hot cocoa off I top it with mini chocolate chips, Andes mint chips, or my favorite chili powder and cinnamon. Who knew easy could look so fancy?

It really doesn’t get any easier than this, does it?! Thanks for sharing, Heather!
I don’t like the wind either. I make me depressed. I am sure Hot Chocolate would cheer me up though.
I tell Dave all the time that if I was in old times, living on the prairie, I would have gone stark raving mad. It drives me nuts. I get all jittery and literally go a little crazy.
I can’t remember the last time we made Hot Chocolate -t hat looks delicious!
This looks so fancy. Move over swiss miss.
I need to make up a lot of chocolate syrup. My kids have been asking for hot chocolate every day.
