A while back I bought this super soft faux fur throw to go over the bottom of our bed and since then I just could not resist having a bit of a relaxation session on it as the sun comes over the mountain and starts streaming into our room. I should actually be working but I take a few stolen minutes to curl up in the sun like a cat and drink a cup of yummy hot chocolate! This is definitely one of my favorite guilty little secrets although I have so many! Hot chocolate doesnt have to make you feel guilty though and if you make it using skim milk, cocoa powder, canderel yellow and fat free marshmallows you can have your guilty moment and enjoy it! xx
Tips for the perfect hot chocolate moment:
1. Find a comfy relaxing spot to enjoy it (window nooks, comfy chairs and bundled in bed are all good places!)
2. Dont make the milk very hot! No one is going to enjoy hot chocolate if you tongue has lost the ability to taste from scalding it on hot milk.
3. After you pop on your marshmallows remember to put it in the microwave for another few minutes until the marshmallows start expanding (not to much though otherwise you will be left with a sticky mess in the microwave!)
4. A good book, magazine or tv show definitely enhances the taste, well in my mind anyway!
5. If you dont consider it your guilty little secret sharing your hot chocolate with someone you love is lots of fun! :)
