Red velvet hot chocolate
Christmas is right around the corner. The season to sit in front of the christmas tree, swaddled in a blanket and sipping on to hot chocolate. We live for this season to drink hot chocolate. Hot milk with melted chocolate, what’s not to like?
But since last 2 weeks, we have been making red velvet version of the hot chocolate. I read about it on Buzzfeed food’s page and decided to give it a try. A dozen of cups in 2 weeks time is a decent score to tell how delicious it is, isn’t it?
The sight of this red velvet hot chocolate is so pretty! It looks just like the red velvet cake served in a cup. Rich dark chocolate flavor and beautiful red food color makes this drink impossible to pass.
Trust me when I say, you have to try this recipe because it’s worth it. Bonus, it takes not more than 7-10 mins to make this cup of Red Velvet Hot Chocolate.
