Homemade Hot Chocolate Mix
I live in the mid-west, which means snowmageddon is normal. It’s just another day. The last one would have left us buried had my husband not stayed on top of clearing the driveway – he cleared it 4 times in less than 24 hours!
We have a small hill in the front of our house, so our son likes to bundle up and head out to play in the snow at the same time my husband is clearing the driveway. He finds great fun in shielding himself from the blowing snow with his sled, so he always comes in the house covered in snow! I see no better way to warm up then with a cup of this Homemade Hot Cocoa!
If you need more warmth, a hot bowl of Vegetarian Chili or Beefless Stew should do the trick!
