Make a mug or two on these cold days and enjoy. Here is how to make perfect mocha chocolate at home with step by step photos.

Come winter I crave for cozy mugs of hot chocolate every now and then. I make this easy homemade hot chocolate mix for my quick fix. Sometime I like to make this indulgent spiced hot chocolate, creamy Italian hot chocolate, nutella hot chocolate and this mocha chocolate is my recent favorite.

I usually have my homemade nutella handy so making this drink takes just 5 minutes for me. It is so blissful to sip a piping hot mug of this drink during cold afternoons.

I am an absolute coffee freak and next to my beloved filter coffee, I love this mocha chocolate and espresso coffee. Combining chocolate and coffee is always a recipe for deliciousness.
