An easy comforting warming drink. Pecans and caramel go so nicely together. I did add a splash of walnut liqueur. Thanks!

Wonderful! I made this for the kids and I, and it was just the treat to warm us up on our cold, snowy morning. They were kind of small servings, but that's OK because it lasted a long time since we slowly sipped the steaming hot beverage to savor every bit of it to the last drop. I didn't have any pecans, so I will have to try this again and add the crushed pecans on top. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Lavender Lynn. Made for the "Best of 2011" tag game.

Wow! My boys are loving this! My youngest (and picky!) son just told me that, "this is the best hot chocolate that I have EVER had!". If you knew my son, you would know that there is no higher compliment when it comes to food! Talk about an easy recipe with decadent results. I made this as listed and wouldn't change a darn thing! This was made for Lavender Lynn as a result of her winning the Went To The Market's special February event. Thanks so much! :)
