Hot Chocolate on a StickWhile perusing Pinterest, I kept coming across "Hot Chocolate on a Stick". I had never heard of such a thing, but I am so glad I found it. It makes a delicious cup of hot chocolate. We are really enjoying these. They would make a nice gift for someone... if they make it out of the house!

  5. Let mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
  6. Add pinch of salt and vanilla. Stir until the mixture is completely melted and shiny. It will be fudge-like.

  8. Line a 8x8 inch pan lined with parchment paper. I used a 6x10 inch pan because it was comparable in size.

  10. Pour the mixture into the lined baking pan.

  12. You can top with additions at this point. I topped it with mini marshmallows and pressed them down a bit to stick. You could also add them after you have cut the squares. The marshmallows got a little chocolatey when I cut into them. Let mixture in pan sit for 12 hours.

  14. Remove chocolate from pan. Cut into squares. The original recipe says to cut into 36 squares. I wanted mine richer, so I cut them into 24 squares.
  15. Add a lollipop stick in each one. You could also use a popsicle stick.

  17. If giving as a gift, wrap each one individually.

  19. To serve, heat a cup of milk in a saucepan or in the microwave. Plop a chocolate square in the hot milk. Let mixture sit for about 3 or 4 minutes. Stir very well to mix the chocolate into the milk. I used a small whisk, which mixed it up a lot easier.

Gosh this looks great - an idea for after the holiday's and perhaps before Valentines... either way any time there is cold weather I am sure these will be appreciated!

I just thought of a way to expand on the gift aspect of making this. I would get a small whisk (I found some at Wal Mart last year for $1.00) and handpaint a Dollar Tree mug to put the hot chocolate stick and whisk in!
