Ingredients

  • 1 (10 ounce) bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Popsicle sticks
  • Silicone ice cube tray (heart shaped)
  • Optional Flavorings:
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • .5 tsp vanilla extract
  • .25 tsp cayenne pepper
  • edible sprinkles

Instructions

  • Add chocolate chips to a double boiler and melt slowly, stirring often.
  • Add in any flavoring you might want, I love adding cinnamon.
  • When the chocolate is fully melted, pour into the ice cube tray, let cool on the counter for about 5 minutes, add any toppings like sprinkles at this point. Then insert the popsicle sticks.
  • Chill and store covered in the refrigerator.
  • When you are ready to enjoy, heat your preferred type of milk until it is simmering, be careful not to burn it.
  • Add 8 - 10 ounces of hot milk to a mug and drop in a chocolate stirrer, slowly stir for 3 - 5 minutes until the chocolate has fully melted off of the stick and enjoy a mug of Hot Cocoa!
