I shared my not so secret
homemade hot chocolate recipe yesterday. I made jars of this stuff last year for friends. I also bought design-a-mugs for my friends to let their kiddos decorate, and I made some chocolate dipped candy canes to add for stirrers. I mean, the best accessory for chocolate it more chocolate....right? The most complicated part of this whole process was taking the pictures. I just grabbed some candy candes, chooclate morsels (I just happened to have some that were mint flavored left over from a week's worth of peppermint projects I blogged about
here), and sprinkles....because sprinkles are to food like glitter is to crafts....magic.
After de-cellophaning the canes, I melted the chocolate for about a minute (no more) at two 30 second intervals-stir-melt, and then dip.
I
Plop it onto wax paper, and add sprinkles, or you could get really fancy and melt a second color of chocolate and drizzle lines.
I stuck with sprinkles b/c.....I have enough to get Texas through the next ice age.
Let it dry, bag 'em, bow 'em. Add to the hot chocolate and mugs and call it a day.
