Warm up with a mug of Peppermint Bark Hot Chocolate. In just a few minutes, you will be sipping and singing along to Christmas music with this festive holiday recipe!

Christmas has always been one of our favorite holidays. We love decorating Christmas trees, baking cookies, singing carols, and gift giving. We also love using peppermint bark to make peppermint bark hot chocolate. We add our Harry & David peppermint bark to homemade hot chocolate to make the hot chocolate extra special. We love the minty kick! Add whipped cream and a candy cane on the side for an even more festive touch and an irresistible holiday drink. All of the cool peppermint flavors combined with the warm, rich chocolate will make you feel like you're in a Winter Wonderland. This peppermint bark hot chocolate is rich, decadent, festive, and the perfect drink to make this season!
