    When you've been rushing around in the cold and wet, there's nothing nicer than a lovely cup of hot chocolate to warm you up. I always used to use a ready-made hot chocolate mix, but it's so easy to make it with milk and cocoa powder instead, and you have much more control over how much sugar goes into it.

    The optional whipped cream and marshmallows make a lovely treat for a special occasion, and it only takes a minute to turn the marshmallows into fun little snowmen!

    Homemade Hot Chocolate with Marshmallow Snowmen

    Ingredients (serves 1): 

    • 250ml milk
    • 1 tbs cocoa powder
    • 1-2 tsp honey or maple syrup
    • Few drops vanilla extract
    To decorate (optional)
    • Squirty cream
    • 2 marshmallows
    • 1 matchmaker chocolate stick
    • edible marker pens

    Method: 

    Place the milk in a small saucepan and heat gently, stirring regularly.

    Once the milk is warm, add the cocoa powder and stir until completely combined and smooth. Add maple syrup or honey to sweeten and a few drops of vanilla extract.

    Continue to stir until all the ingredients are combined and the mixture is hot, but not boiling.

    If adding marshmallow snowman, prepare by drawing a snowman face on one marshmallow and buttons on another. Snap a matchmaker chocolate stick in half for the arms.

    Pour the chocolate into a mug, top with squirty cream and pop the snowman marshmallow on top, poking the 'arms' into the cream on either side.

    Serve immediately.
