%20with%20peppermint%20schnapps.%20Great%20holiday%20recipe! "Pin It")
What better way to warm yourself right down to the toes this holiday season than with a rich, homemade hot cocoa spiked with Peppermint Schnapps? This tasty winter treat is an adaptation of my Bourbon Hot Chocolate recipe. I know I love chocolate and mint together, so I thought I'd sub the bourbon out for some Peppermint Schnapps and see what I got.
Well? What did I get? Heaven. And here's the recipe!
