When the weather outside is frightful...a sweet cup of warm cocoa can be just the thing to warm up your nose (and toes)! This recipe is a twist on the classic chocolatey cocoa, adding a warming hint of ginger and cinnamon to make it taste just like a fresh-baked batch of gingerbread cookies. Top it with some whipped cream or mini-marshmallows, and you’re all set!
This recipe is non-alcoholic, so it’s excellent for you and your kids. But if you want to add a little holiday “spirit”, so to speak, some Bailey’s, Kalua, or bourbon would all work perfectly!
