What AN OUTSTANDING HOT CHOCOLATE ~ We really enjoyed this particular combo of chocolates! Fortunately for me my other half went to work after only 1 cup, & I was able to enjoy the rest of it all morning long! This is definitely one of those recipes I'll be making often! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Gimme 5 tag]

What a wonderfully decadent hot chocolate recipe! I made it in the microwave by heating the milk until tiny bubbles formed around the edge, then adding the chocolate and stirring until melted. This is definitely my top hot chocolate recipe from now on! Thanks Lainey!

I scaled this down for 1 person, and totally enjoyed it early on a rainy morning. Thanks Lainey!

Mmmm so warm, so comfy to have during the winter. The sweetness, chocolaty flavors with cream topping on top's just perfect! Downscaled it to 2 servings and poured in 1 huge mug. Will be making this again! Thanks for sharing, Lainey6605! Made as a pressie for Christmas recipe swap #23.
