It's Recipe Day! Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate

It was chilly this evening and I wanted a hot beverage. I pulled out my Peanut Butter and Company cookbook and found the perfect tasty treat.

Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups light cream
2/3 cup Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter (To 1 cup of smooth natural peanut butter, add 2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips, gently melted.)
Mini marshmallows, whipped cream, or Marshmallow Fluff, for serving

Process:
1. In a medium saucepan, heat the milk and vanilla until hot. Whisk in the cocoa and sugar and continue stirring until dissolved. Add the cream and peanut butter and let simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

2. Serve in warm mugs with mini marshmallows, a big dollop of whipped cream, or Marshmallow Fluff.

Makes 4 servings
