Which begs the question: How do YOU like your hot chocolate? I posed the question on twitter and the responses entertained me much like a kitten playing with a ball of yarn.

I’m telling you.
Layer of mini marshmallows on the bottom.
Add the Hot Chocolate.
Then add two layers of mini marshmallows.
You won’t regret it. Not one time.
I don’t care whether it’s whipped cream or marshmallows, as long as the hot cocoa is made with milk instead of water.
Mmmmm. Peppermint whipped cream. Or if you do marshmallows they need to be put in BEFORE the hot chocolate is poured in on top so they get melty and delicious. 🙂 You’re a makin’ me crave. . .
I love hot chocolate..marshmallows make it even more special!

Having been to Paris and having experienced a true hot-chocolate lover’s dream (which means basically something like chocolate pudding warmed up or a melted chocolate bar in a cup–it’s that thick and wonderful), I have to say that no true Parisian would EVER put marshmallows in hot chocolate. I has to be whipped cream. Real whipped cream. Sweetened with just a bit of sugar and piled on thick.
*sigh*
whipped cream ,lots of it. Maybe some hazelnut flavoring or some ground nutmeg sprinkled on top!
I just posted on my blog tonight that a dash of real vanilla and a dash of cinnamon adds just the right touch. You want to enhance the chocolate flavor not take away from it. Marshmallows and whipped cream take away from the flavor.
I’ll take either thanks but I guess I prefer marshamellows b/c the whipped cream melts too fast.
Great. Now I want hot chocolate and it’s 11:30 at night!
Well! My absolutely favorite way to drink it is a recipe I included in my Visions of Sugarplums Cookbook.
You pour a cup of hot coffee, add a package of cocoa mix, stir with a cinnamon stick, and top with cool whip!
mmmmm!!
I couldn’t drink that ! too sweet and too fat, I would get sick ! I like hot Hibiscus tea with honey when it’s cold.
I do Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate with marshmallows, & no impurities added. *S*
Definitely whipped cream; your cup looks like it has the perfect amount (that’s about 2 inches worth, right?)
Fat be damned, bring it on 😀
Yummy. That looks so nice. All I would need is a cold night, nice fire, great book to read, and that hot chocolate. Yum.
Happy Wordless Wednesday!
South Bend Chocolate factory has the most amazing hot chocolate.
YUMM YUMMM YUMM.. I now live in Arizona and cold chocolate milk is the way to go .

I think I prefer the whipped cream but I won’t turn down marshmallows.
Both look so yummy! Happy WW: http://tinyurl.com/5podks
Gotta have candy canes in mine. And a HEALTHY (meaning: a boatload) helping of whipped cream on top.
Ok, now I really need hot chocolate, and I have neither whipped cream nor marshmallows in the house. Feel sad for me. Feel very sad.
I prefer my hot chocolate with whip cream anytime! Happy WW! 🙂
Y-U-M-M-Y! My mouth waters! Too bad I can’t have much of chocolate drinks. Decreases breastmilk supply, they say, because of its caffeine content. 🙁 Oh well, maybe an occasional drink won’t hurt. 🙂
Happy WW!
I like mine made with very hot skim milk! Very chocolately and with some marshmallows! The cream looks divine but I cannot eat it! Meeeahhhh! Im a little lactose intolerant!
I l ike them both but i think Marshmallows are my favorite! YUMMY
ahhhh! I’m coming, I’m coming. Save me a cuppa.
Hot Chocolate with Whip Cream with Cinnamon sprinkles.
Definitely whipped cream!
Oh man… they both look good! I love mine loaded with Marshmallows with a peppermint stick in it.
Whipped Cream with a touch of hot chocolate.
Definitely marshmallows. 🙂
Wow, that is an awesome couple of hot chocolates! The more marshmallows, the better, that’s what i always say!
Yum! They both look wonderful!
Both!!
That looks so yummy!! I can almost taste it… now where is my cocoa…
Okay, the one on the left – looks sooo yummy!
I have an idea; how about both? A layer of marshmallows on the bottom AND whipped cream ontop!! Yum! *goes off to make hot chocolate* *searches for marshmallows*
Oooh Homemade marshmallow cream! its the only way to go!
Oh, yes, m’dear, that big wide mug on the left looks absolutely perfect! MMMMM!!!
I like my cocoa spicy! Marshmallows are always evocative for me, and I like them mostly melted into the drink. Whipped dream seems more classy, but less fun.
And hey, did I mention Spicy Cocoa? I’m excited about it. Blogging it soon!
I’m a HC addict and if I’m being good I use a sugar free powder mix but then I add some sugar free syrup such as hazlenut or caramel to make it better. Those syrups they add to coffee are great for it–peppermint, cinnamon, vanilla, raspberry,
That looks SO GOOD…I would just drink them both and call it even!
I think I’ll have to try both, just to make sure I make the right choice. 😉
Lisa, who would like her hot chocolate made with milk and just the tiniest bit of amaretto for flavor, thanks.
Don’t like marshmallows so I do whipped cream and keep adding more as it melts in. UMMMMM!!! I want a cup now!
listen carefully……..
if using instant cocoa: layer mini marshmallows on the bottom, add hot water, stir, add powdered coffee creamer (lots) stir again, add whipped cream!
you almost can’t tell it from the real deal….heavenly, just heavenly!
All I can say is delicious! Whether you have hot chocolate with marshmallows, whipped cream, or all by itself, you will still feel like you’re receiving a warm hug from a long lost friend. Enjoy!
Must have marshmallows!! 🙂
If I’m forced to choose I pick whipped cream. But I love the way the melted mini marshmallows taste in hot cocoa. Combined with the cooling effect of the whipped cream to keep me from burning the roof of my mouth on that first sip… mmmmmm!
::coughs::peppermintschnapps::coughs::
Oh, you were asking what you put ON the hot chocolate, not IN the hot chocolate. My bad!
Carry on…
😉
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmarshmellows…
*drools like homer simpson*
Definitely Whipped Cream! Yum!! Okay, now I’m going to go make a cup! 🙂
Okay… I’ll be the naughty girl. I like mine with Chambord or Peppermint Schnapps, after the littles are tucked in for the night. 😉
I’m not going to refuse either, but I prefer whipped cream. With colored sugar, too. And maybe a chocolate-dipped spoon. And …
Marshmallows all the way! YUM!
I’m a purist. I like my hot cocoa straight up (nothing on top, thankyouverymuch) but those both look delish!
Both, please!
