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.
