{Slow Cooker} Best Ever Hot Cocoa

January 19, 2013 by mandyrecipebox

This Best Ever Hot Cocoa is a slow cooker recipe! That right there makes it perfect. It’s creamy and delicious and perfect for a cozy night.


This post is a triple win.
1. It’s a slow cooker recipe.
2. It’s chocolate.
3. It’s a giveaway.
Win.Win.Win.
I am reviewing and giving away a copy of Gooseberry Patch‘s Slow Cooking All Year ‘Round cookbook.

I love that it has recipes for every season. There’s Warming Winter Dishes, Simply Speedy Springtime, Slow & Easy Summer, and Hearty Harvest Favorites. There are more than 225 slow cooker recipes and time saving tips.
I chose to make Best Ever Hot Cocoa for you all. It is pretty sweet so next time I will use less sweetened condensed milk. It tastes just delicious, anyway.
