Easter is on the way and whilst many of us believe in the Easter story and rebirth, lots of others simply love chocolate eggs. With a Spring in our step, it can still be chilly, so warming up with a hot chocolate is the perfect excuse! Let’s have a look at how to make an Easter Egg Hot Chocolate, along with a few other treats!
Easter Egg Hot Chocolate
Firstly, one of the best ways to make a hot chocolate is to get a full Easter Egg. Get yourself one from the supermarket. One of the medium sized eggs for 99p will do. Then you simply break it in half and put it in a big mug. A chunky one that will give you a decent sized drink is the best. Next, warm up some milk until it is super hot and then pour it over the Easter egg, into the mug. The milk will melt the chocolate, and with a few stirs, you’ll have created a perfect Easter Egg hot chocolate.
With so many different chocolate eggs out there, you can create a different version each time. Maybe a white hot chocolate with a Milky Way. Perhaps you want the ultimate combination of dark chocolate and mint with an After Eight Easter Egg. Everyone had a favourite when it comes to Easter time so treat the whole family to their personal Easter Egg Hot Chocolate.
Extra Toppings
Of course, no hot chocolate is complete without the offering of some fancy toppings. Some squirty cream is a great options, as is a sprinkle of chocolate. You can get more creative with marshmallows, even creating Easter characters out of the tasty treat. Some mini eggs can be perfectly balanced on top of cream, as can a tiny chocolate bunny. If you get an Easter Egg from the supermarket which comes with a bar of chocolate, why not balance that in the top of the cream too? Get creative and make the perfect topping to your Easter Egg hot chocolate this season.
In conclusion, why not add a seasonal twist to your beverage this year? Many of us love a hot cross bun at breakfast. Plenty of us enjoy a traditional roast dinner with the family on Easter Sunday. However, why should you stop there? Treat your tastebuds with an Easter Egg hot chocolate!
