I enjoyed this with the whipped cream! The salt really ups the flavor! Thank you for a yummy morning drink! Made for the Comfort Cafe/Recipe of the Day! -
WOWSER! Made for Comfort Cafe this morning as it is blustery and kids stayed over last nite. They were leaving in the nasty this morning so sent them with a carafe of this cocoa. Made with Ghiradelli cocoa (from Breezermom). Added in a bit more sugar for the youngins (LOL) I liked as is. I added whipped cream to mine in a mug and just thought this is great at 5:45 this morning. I did leave out the salt dietary restrictions. Came out great! -
Quite rich and delicious. The dash of salt was a perfect addition that is often left out, but adds a depth to the flavors in chocolate. I topped each cup with rediwhip, chocolate sprinkles, and a dash of cinnamon. This was great for my 2 sick DD's at home for the next 2 days. A nice way for momma to spoil and love them :) Oh, I have been to that website before, and I love it! Made and Reviewed as the recipe of the day for Comfort Cafe. Thanks! :)

I am 30 years old. I am married and have a wonderful family. My hubbie is the greatest. We have a 2 1/2 year old little girl. Her name is Lizzie Belle. I have pics if anyone wants to see. I work for a bank in Brandon, MS. My hubbie is a police officer in Jackson. I have a great cookbook that is called "Any Blonde Can Cook". It is awesome. I love to cook...when I have the time. My family keeps me pretty busy though. I enjoy reading books, going to the movies, traveling, spending time with my family, cooking, playing with Lizzie Belle, tanning, and getting my nails done.
