Valentine's Day
Hot Chocolate Bar
What better way to use up all of those bits and pieces of Christmas goodies than to
turn them into a huge hot chocolate topping bar?
Crush up those peppermint candy canes and toffee, set out those chocolate chips, m&m's, red hots, and leftover baking goodies, grab the leftover whipped cream, and enjoy one of the best hot chocolate bars ever!
Simply set up some several tables (the more the better), toss on some red (plastic) table clothes, and create a unique and memorable event this Valentine's Day...or any day of the year!
Simply pour hot chocolate into a cup, squirt it with whipped topping, and allow kids to sprinkle their chosen toppings on top. (You may want to limit the children to a certain number of toppings. I always limited it to 3)
Make hot chocolate in advance and place it into a crockpot. The crockpot will keep the chocolate warm/hot.
