Hot chocolate

The name of the recipe I will be making is Mexican hot chocolate cookies. The reason I chose Mexican hot chocolate cookies is I find this cookie super unique in taste and texture compared to other cookies. It is fairly simple to make. I learned how to make these cookies with my mother. It was not for a special occasion, we just wanted to try a new recipe. Our family often packages the cookies, three per bag, to take to the military base and distribute to the security forces folks on duty. They really

It is a heated beverage consisting of shaved chocolate, melted chocolate or cocoa powder, heated milk or water, and often sugar.

Around 2,000 years ago, the first chocolate beverage is considered to have been created by the Aztecs, and a cocoa beverage was an important

Waking up in the morning up north is the ideal way to live. No service, great food, family, and fun activities all in the warm summer sun are like a dream. As I woke up one hot summer day I went to the kitchen to eat my breakfast which consisted of me peeling fresh oranges and bananas; which got me thinking of science class when we talked about physical and chemical changes. Physical change is  the original substance that still exists it has only changed in form. Pelling fruit is a physical change

taking pictures and forming a line. I shifted my weight and waited impatiently in the filled to the brim coffee shop. “How much longer?” I whined, crossing my arms and pouting my lips. The line was moving at sluggish speed, and I was ready for my hot chocolate. After a moment of chatter, my parents decided that me and my sister could wait outside and people watch. Relieved, and walking out of the shop, we were welcomed by the cool fall air and rustle of coats. The street was filled with strange items

watching it boil before ripping open a pack of instant hot cocoa. Not any standard-issue hot cocoa either. She snuck that shit in. “Feel like sharing?” I ask, feeling my mouth salivate at the thought of the tiny little marshmallows floating in the sugary chocolate. “Not on your life,” she retorts with a wicked little smile. “I’m hurt,” I exaggerate, slapping a hand against my chest in mock heartbreak. She giggles and sips her hot chocolate, taunting me with her enjoyment. Mana comes and sits by

beans, theobromine can be extracted, coming out to be a white powder. The largest supply of these cocoa beans, more than 70% of them, originates from western African countries, where they are harvested on plantations, and then packed and sold to chocolate companies. These companies will then sell the delicious treat for the public to enjoy in a plethora of ways. Theobromine has had a major impact on history, ranging from shaping cultures to being a part of life saving medicines. Because

mother, “It’s Christmas, it’s your birthday, wake up!” I climbed down the ladder from the top bunk and ran over to the Christmas tree. I sat down and picked up a hot, steaming cup of hot chocolate that was waiting for me. The smell of chocolate flowed through my nose, and I took a big gulp.

I grabbed the presents and started tearing

just the type of person I was, someone who just hopped on a train for the ride. I always liked trains. I don’t know what it was about them, but for some reason or another, I always found myself lounging in the same spot drinking hot cocoa. People always said that hot chocolate “was only for kids” but I never got that; I had a pretty strong distaste for coffee. Honestly, I hate it, the way it makes your teeth gritty to the point where you need something else to drink. I can’t even enjoy a cup unless

school; and they were not easy to type on. It was not much of a surprise that I would think of that first. I do play my games every day, but I got cold, so I went to get some hot cocoa from the kitchen. I walked to the kitchen, and saw a bowl with buttered popcorn filled halfway to the top. I picked up a hot chocolate mix packet labeled “Swiss Miss - Open here.” I ripped it open and some coffee brown dust flew out of the top. I grabbed a mug and poured all of the contents in the mug. I set the
