5 Minutes to a Delicious Hot Cocoa Bar

My daughter loves any ‘ol excuse to eat marshmallows and I figured a hot chocolate bar might do the trick. I searched Pinterest and saw so many cute ideas but I wanted to put something together quick! As in a 5 minute Hot Chocolate Bar people!

Here are some super easy ideas to try out next time you are hosting a playdate or just want to enjoy some hot chocolate by the fire with the family!

You will need:

Favorite hot chocolate mix

marshmallows

whipped cream

candy cane stirrers

chocolate pieces (we received a box of See’s for the holidays and used these – yum!)

cake stand

pretty placemat or paper

favorite mugs

holiday décor

red/white twine

glass jars

Okay, friends this literally took me 5 minutes to put together! Next time you need to put together a quick Hot Chocolate Bar use some of these tips!

We had some pretty sequined stock paper leftover from a recent trip to Michaels. This is a good staple to have around the holidays as you can use it for just about any type of party!

Place your cake stand or tray on top of the paper. Take your favorite mugs and place on top along with a favorite holiday decoration. I love these elves we picked up at Marshalls this year! This label was leftover from our Halloween party. I just turned it inside out and wrote on it. These are great to have around too as you never know when you might want to use one!

Place the hot chocolate mix, marshmallows and candy cane stirrers in glass jars. I tend to recycle glass jars for just these type of occasions. Tie the red/white twine or any colorful ribbon you might have around the top along with a jingle bell if you have one.

Place some of your favorite chocolate pieces (See’s are one of my favorites – how about you?) on the cake stand next to the hot cocoa mix.

Have the milk heating up on the stove and help the kids mix in the hot chocolate mix at the bar. I like that they can decide on how many scopes they want but I had to advise mine to not get too crazy! She does like her sweets that’s for sure!
