The love child of two classic holiday drinks... this Hot Chocolate Eggnog with Eggnog Whipped Cream is sure to impress all your family and friends!
See ya later apple cider. Good riddance apple crisp. I'm not going to lie. These last couple of months have been quite enjoyable. And I'll definitely miss you. But it's eggnog and hot chocolate's turn. And cookies. An absurdly large amount of cookies.
Sometimes I actually have a good idea. Asheley might try and tell you those moments are few and far between, but don't let her kid you 😉
This is one of those lightbulb moments. What if we didn't have to choose between eggnog and hot chocolate? What if we could have both, at the same time?!
That's right. Hot Chocolate Eggnog.
And heck... it's Christmas time. Let's get a little bit crazy up in here. Eggnog Whipped Cream on top. Boom. #nailedit
It's time to impress all your friends and family this season by serving them this elegant concoction and love child of two classic holiday drinks. Hot Chocolate Eggnog with Eggnog Whipped Cream, anyone?
I have to admit, I'm actually not a huge eggnog fan. I'll drink it, but I never really crave it.
But guys. When you combine eggnog WITH hot chocolate? Sweet baby Jesus it's good.
This Hot Chocolate Eggnog with Eggnog Whipped Cream is super creamy and perfectly rich. I'm all about this creative Christmas drink.
And oh man... this eggnog whipped cream. Let's just say I wish it was socially acceptable to brush my teeth with it. #thisiswhyimfat
