Red Velvet Hot Chocolate Recipe!


Serves 1

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
  • 1/2 teaspoon red gel no taste food coloring
  • Whipping cream
  • Vanilla sugar

Vanilla sugar whipped cream:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla sugar (no vanilla sugar? Add regular sugar and a drop of vanilla extract)

Directions:

  1. For whipped cream: Add heavy cream and vanilla sugar to a cold metal bowl. Either whip by hand with whisk or with hand-held mixer until soft peaks form.
  2. For hot chocolate: In a small pan, combine milk, chocolate morsels and food coloring. Gently simmer until hot and all the chocolate is melted. I like to use a small whisk to make sure everything is incorporated. Top with freshly whipped cream.

Disney Animated Film Recipes: Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs - Snow White's Poisoned Apple Cider!

Unlike the poison apple in Snow White, this cocktail is incredibly delicious and only poisonous to children! I warn you, these are strong and may cause you to think the animals are talking to you or little dwarves are following you around.

Yields: 4 poison apples

Ingredients:

  • About 2-1/2 cups apple cider (either store bought or prepared with this recipe)
  • 4 shots spiced rum, like Captain Morgan's (about 1 cup)
  • 4 large apples
  • 4 cinnamon sticks

Directions:

  1. Cut the top off the apples, set aside. Using an apple corer (or spoon), remove the insides of the apples, leaving about a 1/2 inch on the bottom (so it doesn't leak out).
  2. Mix together 3/4 cup of cider and 1 shot of rum (or gauge the amount depending on the apple's size).
  3. Pour mixture into the cored apples and serve with a fresh cinnamon stick.
