Mmmmmmmm, there is nothing better on a cold night cuddling up with the hubby with a hot cup of cocoa doused up with some homemade rum cream. A good dollop of whipped cream and some powdered cocoa sprinkled on top. oh yummy, I love this time of year.

That sounds really good and I am not sure that I would have ever thought about making it with rum cream. How do you make that rum cream? I enjoy hot tea and hot chocolate both at this time of the year. I like to put marshmallow cream in my hot chocolate too.

Good morning, hot chocolate crossed my mind yesterday but i didn't make me any. I prefer marshmallows in mine. It's been cold & rainy & ugly all week here. I'm ready for the sunshine to come back. Happy weekend to u.

Homemade rum cream? Mmmmm. Sounds good. We used to make Rum Totties when i was going out with this one guy. That was fun. I am not into Winter at all. I hate the wind around here. Not fun at all. The kids play out and enjoy it but I am just too old and afraid I will fall on the ice. Ugh!

One of the best experiences of the winter season is hit chocolate. I drink it during the rest of the year too, but more often in the winter. It is a delicious warm feeling to drink a cup of hot chocolate. it reminds me of childhood days and that is a good reflection.

Hi, It seem very yummy talking about a cup of hot cocoa. I have not been drinking hot chocolate for quite sometime. I can easily get heaty,that is why I avoid eating too much chocolates in my life. For me, I love to eat cold dessert and sometimes, in hot weather, I will make my own self cold dessert for my family. Or making some cold jellies are great too.

I'm feeling the same when it comes to making hot cocoa. There are many times where I enjoy cups of hot cocoa so much that it compares to nothing else I've eaten or drunk. Recently, I'm thinking about using more rich chocolate for my hot cocoa. At stores like Pathmark, there isn't much of a high end selection for rich chocolate, so my best bet would be shopping from on-line sites. I will always treasure drinking hot chocolate. My friends all think hot cocoa is great, but they all want the cocoa to be more potent. I think there should be more varieties as well.
