 Super exciting news for fans of Disney and Frozen.

“We enjoyed making Frozen Fever so much and being back in that world with those characters,” said John Lasseter, Chief Creative Officer of Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios.  “Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck have come up with a great idea for a sequel and you will be hearing a lot more about it and we’re taking you back to Arendelle. We are so excited about that.”

A release date and production details will be announced at a later day.

Plus don't miss my upcoming review on Disney's latest theatrical release Cinderella opening tomorrow, Friday, March 13th, and featuring this exclusive Frozen Fever short that cannot be seen anywhere else.

Easy Spicy Hot Chocolate Holiday Drink Recipe

Good Food


Can You Guess the Secret Ingredient?


Hot chocolate is always delicious on a cold winter day but with this chilly winter-like weather that many parts of the US are experiencing, it's time to amp up the flavor a bit to get us out of this slump. I think this elegant and easy recipe, which incorporates the secret ingredient of Colman's Mustard, is just the thing to help us all enjoy the holidays more as well as warm up our taste buds through winter and into spring.

Answer: The secret ingredient adding a spicy twist to this homemade hot chocolate is Colman's Mustard!

Recipe

Spicy Hot Chocolate
Yields 2 Servings

  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 ozs bittersweet chocolate, broken into chunks or grated
  • 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 stick of cinnamon or 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon cocoa extra
  • A sprinkle of Colman’s Powdered Mustard
  • A pinch of salt
  • Optional: A dollop of brandy and a little whipped cream



    • Directions 

    1. Mix the cocoa powder, sugar, salt, Colman's Powdered Mustard and cornstarch together in a small pan.

    2. Pour 1/4 cup boiling water over the dry mixture and stir until everything is dissolved and you have a smooth paste. (You can skip this step and just add the dry stuff to the hot milk in the next step, but there will be cocoa lumps.) 

    3. Put the milk, cinnamon stick and vanilla into a pot you can pour out of. 

    4. Slowly heat the milk. When you judge it to be hot – not simmering or boiling, just hot – add the 2 ounces of chocolate. Stir to dissolve. 

    5. Add the sugar/cocoa paste to the milk. · Keep stirring. When a ring of bubbles forms around the edges of the milk, turn the heat off. Remove the cinnamon stick. 

    6. Pour the chocolate into two cups. Add an optional dollop of brand and a little whipped cream.
