I haven't made it exactly like this recipe but I love the idea and the taste of a mint hot chocolate with whipped cream and candy canes to top it off. I will actually make this at some point but for the time being I will cheat with instant. :)

This recipe is a must try, you won't regret it. As another reviewer put it - better than Starbucks! I thought this would taste too minty, but the candy cane flavor was actually nicely mild. The candy cane melts very quickly and thickens the hot cocoa. 2% milk worked great. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Really perfect for winter! - I thought it was the right mixture of ingredients. Skim milk was fine with me. I sprinkled some extra crushed candy cane and semisweet morsels on top - i used morsels- 1/2 cup = 3 ounces.

I used DeKuyper's Peppermint Blast Schnapps in place of the peppermint candy canes. Very good.

This was great! I made a batch for our New Year's party, only I made 1 small adjustment. Instead of using crushed candy canes, I used Peppermint Schnapps, and served each drink with a candy cane. Everyone loved it! I kept it in a coffee butler and it stayed hot all night!

What a yummy mug of cocoa! Great chocolate flavor with subtle peppermint too. We crushed the candy canes very fine so they would dissolve. Came out great and was enjoyed by everyone!

Very sweet and rich. I don't think I'll make this again, except for the kids as a novelty thing. It became tastier as it cooled, allowing me to actually taste the chocolate. I bought the candy canes in a discount store already crushed (they were damaged canes reduced to $0.10c a bag.)

YUMMY! I added 2 regular candy canes and used a food chopper. Then used some of the mashed up candy on top of the cool whip. The kids loved it. Hubby loved it more though!!!

This is so good and rich. I used 2% milk and 2 ounces very dark bittersweet chocolate and 1 ounce semi-sweet choco chips. It didn't take long at all for the candy canes to melt. We had this tonight with popcorn while watching Christmas movies. Great recipe!

Yummy! I didn't have enough semi sweet chocolate so I broke up a small chocolate Hershey bar. It turned out so tasty I didn't want to share!

I made this for a ladies party and it was a hit. For 5 women I made 8 servings and it was just enough to fill each mug. It is very sweet and rich so I skipped on the whipping cream. Thanks - i will use it again this holiday season.

I made this recipe while my mom was at work, and I had two mugs waiting for when she got home. We decorated the Christmas tree and drank our cocoa together and she absolutely loved it and said that we might have a new Christmas traditional drink! However, I did add a bit more crushed candy cane to the recipe for a more pepperminty taste.
