Christmas "Hot Chocolate Spoons" - Chocolate Love.

Hello everyone, 

I just found this ....

It´s the cutest & sweetest idea I have seen so far for Christmas...

I could not wait to share this great idea with you. 

Imagine a snowy day, its cold outside, you have Christmas music playing loud and enjoying your hot chocolate with this "cute spoons"! Isn´t it fabulous? 

Or you have little siblings, own  kids, grandchildren, a best friend, a girlfriend .....imagine their faces when you would give them this as a present. Everyone would love to get this as a present, right? 

It shows that you put some effort into something. It might be a small present, but  a meaningful one and one the person would not forget that soon. 

Or you might think for yourself. Wouldn't it be a nice treat for a Christmas day? 

A friend posted this comment and its so true. 

"It's not selfish to love yourself, take care of yourself, & to make your happiness a priority. It's necessary."  (Nancy R.) 

Therefore do yourself a favor, treat yourself nice with beautiful things like this "Chocolate spoons". 

Christmas "Hot Chocolate Spoons"

"As [December] is here and the cold wintry season is in full effect, we’re warming up with some hot cocoa. But the best part is, dipping our Hot Chocolate Spoons into it! These spoons are easy to make and fun to eat, helping beat those winter blues!"

What do you need for that? 

- spoons, plastic work best
- chocolate chips, regular and mini chips
- marshmallows
- coconut, shredded and sweetened
- peanut butter chips
- butterscotch chips
- crushed candy canes
- wax paper
- plate

"Have your supplies out ready to go. Heat up your chocolate chips for spoon dipping first. Place a 1/2 cup of chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Take it out and stir, then continue to heat it for 20 second intervals until melted.
Once your chocolate is melted, dip your spoon into the bowl. You’ll need to stir it around and turn it over to make sure you’ve got it all covered in chocolate. Then set the spoon onto a plate covered in wax paper.

When you’ve got your spoons dipped, it’s time to decorate them. For the snowman, place 3 marshmallows in a line down the spoon. I topped one with a peanut butter chip for the hat and a flake of coconut for the scarf. Then two mini chocolate chips get a tiny dip of melted chocolate on the bottom of them before you place it on the top marshmallow for the eyes. Cute!

We made a few different kinds of dipped spoons. One is dipped in melted peanut butter chips with mini chocolate chips all over. We call that one the “chocolate chip cookie” dipped spoon, and it is my favorite one dipped in hot chocolate! We also sprinkled coconut on one to look like snow. Melted mint chocolate with crushed peppermint on another, and a melted butterscotch chips spoon with drizzled chocolate on the top. Mmm, Mmm!

Once you’ve got all your spoons dipped and decorated, let the chocolate harden again. It goes by pretty fast if you place your waxed plate in the fridge for about 15-20 minutes. Then they’re ready for dipping in hot cocoa, or even your hot milk. The snowman one was our favorite to dip. He went for a big swim in chocolate. He was going…

going…

gone..

Now this is one tasty snowman! Have fun dipping your snowmen spoons in chocolate!"

As a present this Christmas "Chocolate Spoons" are an "eye catcher". 

Just think about it.

If you see a lot of cute chocolate spoons in a beautiful Christmas cup, wouldn't it be the most innovative and unique present ever? 

Treat yourself and people around you well. 

Give them a little recognition and a nice little gesture by inviting them for a hot chocolate and cookies :) 

Have a beautiful Christmas Time!

Love life.
Liebe das Leben.
