which topping should I put on my cocoa??

[NMDemDist2]

the traditional mini marshmallows

or the fresh whipped cream I made up today with extra vanilla


Hmmmmmm

decisions, decisions...

[fizzgig]

1. why not both?

it alleviates the need to make such difficult decisions

but if i had to decide, i'd go with the whipped cream

[NMDemDist2]

3. oooo decadent!

I already did a demitasse coffee with the whipped cream and it was darned tasty!

[begin_within]

2. Sprinkle cinnamon on it

[NMDemDist2]

4. hmmm, never tried that

i will though before the weekend is over

10. Try it with a little chili powder.

I know, it sounds really strange, but it's really good.

[NMDemDist2]

12. i was thinking nutmeg might be nice too n/t

[begin_within]

30. that's Mexican-style

[ismnotwasm]

5. I'm partial to marshmallows

But fresh homemade whip cream? Yum.

[NMDemDist2]

6. the problem with marshmallows

is once I open the bag, I keep eating them and eating them

:spank:

[judaspriestess]

7. sprinkle some nice crushed zanex

just kidding. Whipped cream sounds yummy!!

[NMDemDist2]

8. no, thank you. why ruin the cocoa, not to mention the 14+ years

clean and sober?

:rofl:

[carly denise pt deux]

9. first the marshmallows, then the whipped cream as a topper, then some shaved chocolate

wow, that sounds good! I am going to go make me some hot cocoa and sit around, in my freshly washed still warm outta the dryer, brand new plushy bathrobe that I just bought, hopefully there will be a good movie on tonite.

11. i like whipped cream with cinnamon sprinkled on it

:loveya:

[NMDemDist2]

14. that's the second cinnamon recommendation

i'm for sure gonna try it!

[reyd reid reed]

15. Shoot the works

Do 'em both. Put the marshmallows in the cup, pour the hot chocolate over 'em, add whipped cream on top and then some chocolate shavings.

If you're gonna do it, might as well do it right.

[NMDemDist2]

16. mmmmmmm

that does sound like the ticket doesn't it??

:9

:hi:

[anti-everything]

19. Yeah, I saw that after I posted,

sorry if it was insensitive. Congrats on 14+ years, a remarkable achievement. And thanks.

[NMDemDist2]

21. no problem at all

after 14 years there's no sensitivity left :rofl:

[skygazer]

20. Mmmmmmmmm..................

Hot cocoa......................... :9

[NMDemDist2]

22. 'xactly!

that's what I'm talking about !!! :loveya:

[sarge43]

23. Whipped cream and cinnamon

Next time put a dash of mint extract in the whipped cream - chocolate and mint mmmmmm.

[NMDemDist2]

24. cinnamon is winning by a full length

I really will try that

as for the mint, not so much. I don't care for it but I'm thinking almond instead of vanilla next time I do whip cream

[sarge43]

27. Almond and whipped cream - oh yes. n/t

[wain]

25. My dad made cocoa the old fashioned way

While slowly heating up a pan of whole milk he dry mixed into a glass Hershey's cocoa and sugar. When warm, a couple of spoonfuls of milk stirred into the dry mix, adding more spoonfuls until thin. Then gradually pouring the glass full of warm cocoa/sugar concentrate into the pan of warmed milk. Finally, topped off with marshmallows. One of my very fond childhood memories.

:)

[NMDemDist2]

26. oooo YUM!

but since I don't have ANY of the ingrediants except sugar and marshmallows I can't try that

but what a lovely memory. you should make it a Christmas Eve tradition eh?

[GenDem]

33. That's exactly how I make it!

A pinch of salt a little bit of vanilla and I break off a little piece of candy cane and let it dissolve in the bottom of the mug and top it off with the whipped cream. Yummm!!!!

[flvegan]

28. Pepperoni

Sorry. I hear "topping" and I think pepperoni.

[NMDemDist2]

29. dude

you are a sick puppy

:rofl:

[havocmom]

31. Neither. Put a half shot of apricot brandy in it instead

MMMMM good!

[NMDemDist2]

32. see post #8 and i never like apricot brandy

although blackberry was OK
