The kids had gone to visit the neighborhood horses and were quite chilled when they came back in.  We needed a little hot chocolate to warm up and snuggle with.

A few months ago, my friend, Jen, shared this Gingerbread White Hot Chocolate recipe with me, and it has become a favorite around our house. It is a little sweet and little spicy and creamy and delicious.
