1. Best Ever Creamy Crockpot Cocoa – Sure, hot cocoa packets are great, but there’s just something about a cup of cocoa made from real milk and chocolate. Best thing EVER!  Even better, with this hot cocoa recipe, you can cook up a big batch in your Crockpot!  

2. Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate – What’s better than a cup of hot cocoa?  A cup of hot cocoa drizzled with gooey caramel goodness! You can use the store-bought caramel sauce, but I totally recommend the extra effort of homemade caramel sauce – totally worth it in this hot chocolate recipe!

3. Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate Recipe – The familiar spices of pumpkin pie are a perfect addition to your cup of cocoa in the fall. This recipe even includes instructions for homemade whipped cream- Mmmm!

4. French Hot Chocolate Recipe – If you’re a major fan of super dark, rich chocolate, then this is the hot chocolate recipe for you! This is not your ordinary cup of cocoa. It’s thick and velvety – just like le chocolat chaud they serve in Paris. Basically, a chocoholic’s dream come true.

5. Nutella Hot Chocolate – Let’s just admit it, Nutella makes everything better, and hot chocolate is no exception. You’ve gotta try it at least once this season.
