Hot Chocolate

Growing up I spent a lot of time at Grandma's house (as I'm sure you can tell because I think I write about it in almost every entry). One of the things that I loved to do was drink her hot chocolate! It's way better than a mix you buy at the store, and warms more than just your body, it warms your heart and soul. How is that even possible? Because it's made with love, duh.

I like to mix mine with milk and leave enough room at the top of my cup to overflow it with marshmallows!
So Delish! Even when you are out of mallows.

Hot Chocolate

* Powdered Milk - the side of the box will say how many quarts the powder mix makes. get enough for 12-16 quarts.
Serve: Heat mug of milk, add appx 1/4cup of mix, marshmallows (optional). enjoy!

Pretzel & M&M Krispy Treats

Basically I love Krispy treats. Love them!

I also love the salty and sweet combo of pretzel's and M&Ms. I had both ingredients on hand from some cookies I made the week before, so I figured why not add in some krispies and marshmallows and really get this party started!

Pretzel & M&M Krispy Treats

2c Pretzel
1 bag M&M (12oz)
2 bag Mini - Marshmallows
10c Rice Krispies (give or take(
2tbs Butter

**I like making a double batch but it's too much to mix in my bowl at one time. Cut the ingredients in half, follow below instructions, place in dish, then repeat with the other half of ingredients.

  1. Melt butter & marshmallows. (I do mine in the microwave on 1min intervals, stir between intervals, but feel free to use the stove).
  2. Slowly stir in Krispies, M&Ms, Pretzels.
  3. Spray dish with non-stick spray, and pour in the mix.
  4. let cool, cut, serve, become addicted.
