Growing up, homemade hot chocolate was a special treat that my mama made on Christmas morning. She made it from scratch every single time and that rich, true, chocolatey flavor will be one of my favorite Christmas memories forever. Nothing beats homemade hot chocolate. I posted my mama’s recipe below. Try it, I know you’ll love it too!
