Mint Hot Chocolate

Mint Hot Chocolate is creamy, delicious, and full of delicious mint chocolate flavor.

One thing I am unable to say no to?  A cute little Girl Scout selling Girl Scout cookies.  I was a Brownie and a Girl Scout and my mother was my leader, wasn’t I cute?

Thin Mints are my favorite!  Hands down, no contest! But eventually they are all gone and I miss the delicious mint chocolate combination. I found a solution. A mug of warm, yummy Mint Hot Chocolate that tastes just like a Thin Mint Cookie. This creamy cup of hot chocolate has just the right amount of mint.

Ingredients Needed

• Cocoa Powder
• Sugar
• Salt
• Vanilla Extract
• Peppermint Extract
• Milk. I use 2 percent.
• Whipped Cream

How to Make Mint Hot Chocolate

• Mix together sugar, cocoa and salt in a pan.
• Add water and mix until dissolved.
• Bring to a boil and cook and stir for about 2 minutes
• Add in milk and extract.
• Cook until hot. Do not allow to boil.

And if you are lucky enough to have a box of Thin Mints around crush up a few to sprinkle on the top and then add a little Thin Mints side car.  They are so yummy once they melt a little in the hot chocolate.
