Grinch Hot Chocolate

Grinch Hot Chocolate

Is this the best hot chocolate I’ve had? Yes, yes it is. I was craving a Christmas trip to Paris, but instead I stayed home and made hot chocolate the Parisian way thick, rich, and spoonable, honestly the only acceptable version in my opinion.
And if the Grinch needed a comfort drink, this would be it. Extra thick, extra toppings, because holiday calories don’t count.
