A sweet winter treat

This recipe has a peppermint kick, but you can substitute other extract flavors compatible with chocolate such as orange or mocha.

Hot Chocolate On A Stick is a rich, creamy treat that warms hearts and taste buds alike. A creative twist on hot chocolate, it’s easy to make with kids. It’s also a great contender for a Valentine’s Day gift to your special someone. Find the recipe here.

For the finishing touch, top each one with a marshmallow and wrap in cellophane with colorful ribbon. The recipe uses peppermint extract. Not a big fan of peppermint? Discover other flavor variations — like mocha and orange — and even more ideas at mccormick.com or pinterest.com/mccormickspices.
