Gingerbread—no matter where you are in the world—has always been a symbol of Christmas and the holidays, stirring up warm memories of cosy kitchens, the sweet scent of spices and fun shapes.
There are endless recipes to try, but my memories of making it involve sticky brown rolling pins, flour everywhere, fun cutters and a table full of different coloured icing bowls, silver balls, red hearts, sprinkles and peppermints for the decoration fun.

My recipe for homemade Gingerbread Hot Chocolate
Ingredients:
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons of something sweet - can be maple syrup, honey or sugar
- festive spices to taste
- stick of candy cane
Method:
Simply heat ingredients on the stove gently, whisking so that they come together. Now the fun part! Add a pinch of cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg and voila! A delicious gingerbread hot chocolate. And if you really want to impress, serve with a stick of candy cane as a stirrer. Sip and enjoy.
