I love peppermint mochas so this is perfect for me.
just tried to make cookies…and, well…I’ll try again next year…so right about now I really could use a Peppermint Patty (extra on the schnapps please!)

Mmmm! Sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing. Always wanted to make a hot toddy but most recipes just sound ugh…this one sounds marvelous though!
I wish I was at home right now, curled up on the couch with a blanket, sipping on one of these, and watching a chick flick! Sounds like heaven!
