Homemade Hot Chocolate……the Recipe for Winter Fellowship

Posted in Recipes. Written by Ivy on February 12th, 2010

Snow doesn’t often come to Alabama so “snow preparation” includes making sure that we have all of the ingredients for Leigh’s Hot Chocolate recipe.  The first time I made this, snow fell on Alabama.  We lived on a street filled with children.  I made pots of this delicious winter treat and served it on my porch to neighbors chilled by the outdoor games…..We still talk about this special time and the memories that we  made  that  day.  Enjoy  the winter wonderland and the fellowship!
