Don't knock it till you've tried it. This rich, delicious, and kicky hot chocolate might make you abandon your traditional ties. No marshmallows needed; this is for grown-ups. Everything in this recipe can be altered to suit your taste, however I recommend following the recipe to the letter the first time you try.
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons instant hot chocolate mix
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
Instructions
-
1
Mix the hot chocolate mix, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper together in a mug.
-
2
Pour the milk into a glass measuring cup; heat in microwave on High until it begins to boil, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour over the mixture in the mug, stirring with a small whisk as you pour. Enjoy immediately.

Bacon-Wrapped Tater Tots
This recipe found me about a year ago and I have absolutely loved it ever since! Given its ingredients, I wasn't surprised to find it seems to be a hit no matter where it's served.
Wake-Up Casserole with Canadian Bacon
The original recipe for this casserole with Canadian bacon is delicious, but this is my healthier version with less fat and fewer calories. As a single person, I can't eat eight portions in one sitting, so I wrap portions and freeze them. It's great to have on hand for family visits — just reheat each person's serving when they show up for breakfast. It's also great if you're in a hurry in the morning and don't have time to cook before heading off to work.
Classic Yorkshire Pudding
Traditionally served with roast beef, Yorkshire pudding is actually not a pudding at all! Rather, it's a puffed pastry baked with meat drippings. People in the U.S. tend to think popovers and Yorkshire pudding are the same, but they're not. Popovers are hard and very airy, while Yorkshire pudding is softer and doesn't rise as high as a popover.
