Also at my local coffee shop they are doing black forest hot chocolates right now, which is dark chocolate cocoa powder, whipped cream on top and drizzled in the jam the gets put in the cakes. It's incredibly unhealthy but tastes sickeningly amazing.

I tried that Black forest hot chocolate today. It was sooooo good!

I don't drink coffee so hot chocolates are still my go-to drink to get warmed up when it's cold out. Brrrryum.

I know, I know. If I'm ruining my own healthiness I'm dragging you all down with me!

You know what hot chocolate I had once?

Chocolate Orange.

/smug

Yeah, it was delicious. Yeah, it was bloody lovely. Probably about 1000 calories but worth it for that chocolatey orangey gooey goodness.

Really? =O
Have you tried making it yourself? I don't like most hot chocolate that I haven't made myself.

Serves one person:

• 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp water
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 tsp vanilla

Mix the cocoa powder and sugar with water, then whisk and heat until dissolved. Add milk and heat, but don't bring your mixture to a boil (stir constantly). Add vanilla. Done.

This is how I like my hot chocolate, with bites of pumpkin cream pie between sips. :mamu:

You realize this is something you agree with Chris about, don't you?

I'm gonna make me some hot cocoa right now. Since it is stupid cold outside and I need to finish working on my truck.

Mmmmm. I'm so excited.

This isn't really in my diet anymore, but when it was I'd love to drink two packs for double the chocolate flavor. Caramel pieces or nutmeg on top with whip cream is the best way to have imo.

I like it poorly mixed so that there's little blobs of half-dissolved powder.

No, it was about the chocolate orange. I haaaaate chocolate orange. Chocolate fruit anything (except for chocolate-covered strawberries, those are okay).

Once someone from my church gave me a specially-packaged wrapped up mug with a hot cocoa packet in it and marshmallows to include and everything. The hot cocoa was raspberry flavored. My first and immediate thought was to rip the cellophane open, tear the hot chocolate packet open and wave it in her face and eyes for offending me with such a vile gift.

But I didn't, I just said thank you and then left it in my cupboard for two years. Showed her good.

I love hot chocolate. It's my favorite hot drink of all time.

I like marshmallows and I like hot chocolate, but never together. The very best hot chocolate can be found at Disneyland.

Eewww. I've had to wash cups with that left in them and it just doesn't look good.

I have a hot chocolate maker. It heats and froths. It's pretty legit. I'm pretty serious about my hot cocoa.

Hot to perfection

Hot chocolate is ambrosia.
