Today we are talking about Christmas Yummies {aka food and drink}. Well in true L.A.I.D. fashion I'd rather share with you a delicious drink recipe. If that doesn't count as a Christmas Yummy, I don't know what does.
This recipe and I go WAY back. I was still living with my parents the first time I made it and it comes from Food Network's very own Sandra Lee {of Semi Homemade Cooking}. So that means the recipe is very easy. I watched her holiday special and immediately knew that I wanted to make this for my family as a top off to our wonderful Christmas.
It's called White Hot Chocolate and one cup will be enough, I promise. I'm not usually a white chocolate lover but I am obsessed with this drink! It's pretty thick and very

- Peppermint liqueur, optional
- White chocolate liqueur, optional
