  1. do you make the hot chocolate like you normally would? heated? also, do you make the hot chocolate with milk or water?

    1. Yes, you can make whatever kind of hot chocolate you would like. Homemade or from mix. If using a mix just follow the directions on the mix. If they say you can use water or milk I would choose milk since it will be creamier. Also, yes the hot chocolate should be heated and warm. Enjoy!

    1. Yes, you could use hot chocolate from a K-cup. However, that kind of hot chocolate is less creamy than hot chocolate made with milk so you will want to keep that in mind.
