12 Days of Christmas Day 8: Crock Pot Hot Chocolate Bar

12 Days of Christmas Recipes, Crafts, and Style

I have been seeing hot cocoa bars left and right on Pinterest lately, and decided to make my very own! I pulled together the best treats from all of the different ideas I found and this list is what I came up with!

Hot Chocolate Bar and toppings- includes recipe to great crockpot hot chocolate

  • Chocolate- Mint spoons for stirring- homemade, find the post here.
  • Crushed mints- I just bought some mints at the store and smashed them in to little bits.
  • Homemade marshmallows- There were also made by me. So easy and so delicious! Post here.
  • Caramels- They melt at the bottom and give you a chocolatey-caramel flavor. Store bought.
  • Homemade chocolate chip marshmallows- Made with the regular ones, sooo good!
  • Pirouettes- These are store bought and they are perfect for stirring as well! They’re also so good you can just eat them plain:)
  • Peppermint Schnapps- Not pictured, but this is great for the adults at the party. It’ll warm you up real fast!
  • It’s A Marshmallow World In The Winter printable- found here.
  • Hot cups
  • Paper straws- Mostly for show, but you can stir with them too:)
  • Cotton balls- For fake snow of course! A little decoration goes a long way:)
  • Hot Cocoa- of course! The recipe for this amazing kind I made is below!
