When the weather outside is, well, frightful, meaning cold temperatures and rain (maybe snow, if you're lucky), I just want to sip on an endless mug of hot cocoa [1] with fluffy marshmallows on top. Sweet, creamy hot cocoa is cold weather's best companion, and what better way to serve it than charcuterie board-style [2]? Yes, hot chocolate is good on its own, but imagine it topped with whipped cream, huge marshmallows, cookies, cocoa powder, candy canes, chocolate chips, chocolate-covered pretzels, sprinkles, and more fun and festive toppings? It's a decadent and oh-so-delightful way to enjoy this classic drink, and it makes a perfect spread for cosy festive movie nights [3] at home with family and friends. If you need some inspiration to put together your own hot cocoa board, check out a few of our favourite ones ahead. They'll be sure to warm your body and soul with pure, chocolatey joy.
