We had our first snow fall only days ago here in Iowa, it was a harsh reminder of what's to come in the next few months. Although the weather gets pretty yucky and cold outside, as long as I don't have to go out in it - I love it. Cuddling up on the couch in front of the fireplace with a cup of hot chocolate is my idea of the perfect evening. I have several Hot Chocolate recipe's that I turn to in the cold weather but this Spicy Hot Chocolate is one of my favorites and by using TruMoo, it's simple to make!
Most people think of TruMoo and think of a nice cold class of chocolate milk, right? But, did you know you could Try it Hot and it's just as delicious? Plus, it makes having hot chocolate that much easier!

How to Make Homemade Whip Cream
Ingredients You Need 2 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream 2 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Instructions In a stand mixer, whip all the ingredients together until soft peaks form. Enjoy on your hot cocoa or dessert of choice!
TruMoo is just as delicious hot as it is cold, and is made with real milk and the right amount of chocolate! With the cooler temperatures the next few months, it's the perfect time to hunker down inside make some hot chocolate and play a board game with your family, read a book or just watch the snow fall. Nothing could be more relaxing!
Something I always do for my boys, when they've been outside playing in the snow for hours (it seems) I always have a little slow cooker full of hot chocolate waiting for them when they come in to warm up those cold hands and faces. I couldn't imagine it being any easier then pouring a carton of TruMoo into the slow cooker and turning it on low, making a creamy and delicious warm treat that's waiting for the kids after they play outside.
