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 tried years ago.. since I saw it in Martha Stewart Show...but... I used entire candy canes at the bottom of the served cup instead of crushed peppermints.. works well too..Warmest Holidays...

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.

Try adding cherry candy canes instead of peppermint for a different twist. Although I haven't tried this recipe, I put cherry canes in my instant cocoa and it tastes like a liquid cherry cordial.

I made this for a brunch and everyone loved it! I had to make 3 batches. Will definetely make again. You do not need to break the candy up too small, it will melt if you heat the hot chocolate slowly on the stove top.

Delicious, made this last night, and was a big hit. I couldn't find candy canes at the store, so instead I bought a york peppermint patty and dinner mints. I highly recoomend adding a york patty, as it really brings a strong peppermint flavor. I found peppermint whipping cream at the store, to my delight, which was a perfect topping. I decorated the cups with andes mint candies broken in half with a few dinner mints. SO delicious, I will make this again.
