Hot Chocolate Float

image from soChef

We love Hot Chocolate at our house. And we love finding different ways to enjoy our hot chocolate. I have already told you about some of our favorites (peppermint hot chocolate made by stirring it with a candy cane and Mexican Hot Chocolate) but there is one that everyone should REALLY try!

A hot chocolate float.

I first had this 10 years ago at a party. You make the hottest hot chocolate and then serve it over a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

YUM!

I am thinking that I might have to try it over peppermint ice cream this year. I can't believe I have never done that before!

Give it a shot. You won't be disappointed. I mean it is hot chocolate and ice cream. What isn't there to like?

Oh yum. Can you believe I can't get my 5 yo to have hot chocolate. Well, I haven't tried in a long time and now seems like a good time.

My husband loooves this stuff! He likes to try it with different flavors of ice cream, too. (We recommend you skip the cookie-dough flavor...)

Erin said...

I have a homemade cocoa recipe that is the best. Then I stir mint chocolate chip ice cream into it and I swear I have died and gone to heaven. YUM!

Ooooh, or with cinnamon ice cream. Or cherry ice cream. Or caramel ice cream. Or or or or. Clearly I like this idea.

My nephew adds honey....I've never tried it but it's the only way he accepts it.

We love all the sugar we can get during December! Thanks :0) I love that the ice cream would cool the hot chocolate down a bit too - keep us from burning our tastebuds.
