Instructions
A hot cocoa bar is the perfect addition to your holiday party or movie-viewing night with the kids.
We all have very different tastes in our home, so we love to have do-it-yourself bars as often as possible so everyone can choose what they like. This hot cocoa bar was so fun to set up.
Let the kids add their own toppings to their hot chocolate once you have poured it for them.
My daughter chose the Rich Milk Chocolate cocoa with marshmallows and white morsels.
I went a little crazy with the Dark Chocolate cocoa topped with whipped cream and marshmallows. Nestlé® Crunch® Miniatures and Wonka® Pixy Stix® Candy Canes were also delicious additions.
Handmade snowflake drink stirrers
We turned simple wooden stirring sticks into fun holiday stirrers by using hot glue to attach snowflake buttons to the top of each wooden stick.
