These past couple of months meant lots of cold weather and lots of snow. Curled up on the couch watching Netflix, something warm, decadent and chocolatey was called for: Cognac Hot Chocolate. On their own, both key ingredients are perfect for the winter months. Together, they're a match made in heaven.

  • 3 drops vanilla extract
  • 1 drop hazelnut extract
