REAL HOT CHOCOLATE



Real Hot Chocolate image

Although I live in Florida now, this is still a favorite on a chilly night. After shoveling snow on those cold New England winter days, this is the way Mama made it and had waiting for my brothers and me. We would line up our boots outside the door and run to the kitchen table in our stocking feet. Sometimes, instead of whipped cream, we would put a spoonful of "Marshmallow Fluff" on top. Oh, those were the days!!!
