So I knew I needed to step it up a notch and make a hot chocolate creation worthy of such a decadent cocoa. After sampling the three flavors I was sent: Salted Caramel, S’mores, and Candy Cane, I decided to make a Frozen Hot Cocoa! You heard me right – a Hot Chocolate milkshake {is your mind blown?!}. I added Stephen’s Cocoa to the shake and the homemade marshmallow whipped cream and let me tell you it was out of this world amazing!
