#resippies

Hot Choco (simple);

1.) pour milk in favorite mug. microwave for 40 - 50 seconds. mix 2 spoons of sugar, 1 spoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, and a sprinkle of salt together. take mug out. mix milk, add back in for another 40 - 50 seconds. slowly add in chocolate mixture to cup, mixing the entire time. drink.

(you can add caramel sauce to the cup before adding milk, or add spices to the cocoa mixture, or pretty much do whatever lmao)

Hot Choco (complicated);

Ingredients;

one mug’s worth of milk + ¼ cup milk

herbs (if wanted. i recommend peppermint leaves or lavender.)

1 cup chopped chocolate/chocolate chips

5 spoons of sugar

1.) add milk to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. if you want herbs, add them now, let simmer for a couple minutes, then remove with a tea strainer/spoon.

2.) add chocolate very slowly, whisking in between. add sugar. (you might need to add more/less depending on your taste.)

3.) remove from heat, allow to cool, pour into mug or drink from the saucepan, im not gonna judge.

Potato Soup;

fair warning; this resippie takes around 2/3 hours, including prep time. employing another family member/friend is very recommended. i am speaking from experience here. seriously.

also i can provide a vegan/vegetarian version if wanted.

Ingredients;

pound of bacon, cut into pieces.

veggies! i usually add 3-4 carrots and 3 celery stalks. all diced.

a whole diced onion

3 - 4 cloves of diced garlic

8 potatoes

an entire container of chicken broth

¼ cup flour

3 tbsp butter

1 cup heavy cream (or ¼ cup butter + ¾ cup milk)

cheese (i recommend cheddar)

1.) get a huge pot. like, seriously, the biggest pot you own. the one that’s half your size. you need a big pot. fry the bacon in said pot until nice and crispy. remove bacon, dispose of all but around ¼ cup of the grease.

2.) fry the onions, celery, and carrots in the grease for about 5 minutes (or until onions are transparent.) add the garlic and saute for another 3 - 4 minutes

3.) add potatoes and saute for yet another 3-5 minutes, then add the broth. it should cover the potatoes- if not, add water. let it simmer until the potatoes are soft.

4.) mix melted butter and flour together in a bowl, then add heavy cream and whisk. add to soup.

5.) mash the soup with a potato masher to make the potatoes smaller + the soup creamier. add spices (i like adding paprika, coriander, baharat, and chili powder in mine) and salt and pepper. make sure to taste test! add bacon + cheese to soup if you like it
