Hazelnut Hot Cocoa



Oh hey, Polar Vortex.  You're back again, eh?  Ugh.
Its a sweltering 8 degrees here in Chicago right now.  We're making plans to weather this weekend's beyond freezing temperatures and they pretty much look something like this:  stay in bed, read, sip hot cocoa, nap, repeat.
Below is our absolute favorite cocoa recipe.  Its so so rich and creamy tasting and about as uncomplicated as a recipe can be. You've got to give it a try!
What are your plans for this oh so wintery feeling weekend?  Stay warm, friends! 


Hazelnut Hot Cocoa
(Serves Two)

2 cups almond milk
1/4 cup hazelnut spread, like Nutella
(try Natural Nectar's Dark ChocoDream Spread for a vegan variation)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or spice it up with peppermint extract)
*Add a splash of Baileys Irish Cream or your favorite whiskey for a more grown up version.
Heat on stove. Whisk while heating.  Enjoy!
