Got a sweet tooth? In the mood to get cozy by the fire? Why not build your own white chocolate hot cocoa bar? The kids will love choosing their own toppings, decorating their drinks with colorful treats galore. Watch how-to video here and keep on reading for inspiration.

  • Options, options, options! We love customizable treat bars because everyone has a different taste and it’s a fun way to express yourself creatively—and deliciously! To make your white chocolate hot cocoa, simply add milk (or a milk alternative like oat or almond) to a powdered mix. We like this one and this one! Amp up the excitement by arranging a colorful bevy of topping options. Here are just a few ideas:

    -Marshmallows
    -Pirouettes
    -Pink and white animal cookies
    -Sprinkles
    -Whipped cream
    -Chopped nuts
    -Strawberry or chocolate syrup
    -Pastel nonpareils

  • Make it festive! Decorate your hot cocoa bar with garlands, tassels or even balloons. Every occasion is a special occasion.
  • When you’re shopping for ingredients, don’t forget to add a case of Every Night firelogs to your cart! They’re easy to light and last the perfect length of time for family hangouts, burning bright and bold for 2.5 hours and winding down just as it’s time for the kids to put their PJs on.
  • Don’t just stop at treats! Make the most of time with the fam by doing a challenging jigsaw puzzle together, coloring or painting, or trying your hand at origami. If you can dream it, you can do it.
