Our gift to you this rather dreary December day is the secret to our ULTIMATE ho-ho-hot chocolate we prep every Christmas Eve for when Father C comes to visit down our chimney.

We think our main man deserves an extra special lil’ summin summin when it comes to his hot beverage of choice during his crazy busy evening. So we turned to the one thing that brings forever love and solves *almost* all of life’s problems; <3 Nutella <3. 

Mr. Claus has come back for more every year so far, so we must be on to a winner.

You’re gonna need:

1 1/3 cups milk
3 tbsp Nutella (+ the rest of the jar for eating after!)

What you need to do: 

Add the Nutella and 1/3 cup milk to a saucepan over a medium-low heat and whisk until combined.

Gradually add the rest of the milk, whilst continually gently whisking. 

Remove from heat as soon as the mixture starts to boil.

Pour into your fave mug and cuddle up on the sofa in your cosiest PJS and snuggly blanket e for the ULTIMATE hot chocolate experience.

Optional Additions:

Marshmallows, cream, candy cane, flavoured syrup, cinnamon
