A cup of hot chocolate is the perfect way to warm up on a cold winter night, but this version from Missy and Kristen of Sweetly Chic Events & Design is at the top of our hot chocolate recipes list! With a dose of Bailey’s Irish Cream and a dusting of peppermint sugar, this rich, chocolaty treat makes a fabulous dessert drink. Make a thermos of this hot chocolate, grab some festive mugs and set up a toppings bar (sprinkles or chocolate chips, anyone?) so guests can customize and enjoy their own hot cocoa all evening
