Recipe Introduction

"When I come back inside after a day of ice skating and romping around in the snow, I love to have something warm and cozy waiting to thaw me out. All I have to do is prep this peppermint hot chocolate ahead of time, turn it on, and know it'll be waiting for me after my wintry day of fun."

â—¦ 2 cups heavy cream
â—¦ 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
