Valentine’s Day and chocolate…the one doesn’t go without the other. Well actually… of course we like our chocolate every day, but we like it even more on Valentine’s Day!

Here’s a nice and easy DIY: a sweet way to surprise your Valentine or a loved one. Make your own Valentine’s Hot Chocolate Sticks! Get comfy on your couch – or in your bed for that matter – with a big cup of hot milk, and stir these sticks through.

What you’ll need:

Good quality chocolate: Pure, milk or white
Heart shaped chocolates for decorations
Wooden sticks
Silicone molds

Here’s how to:

Melt your chocolate au bain marie. Heat it until about 3/4 part is melted, take away from the heat and stir through.
Pour the melted chocolate in the silicone molds, place the wooden sticks in the middle and let it set a little. Once the chocolate is set a bit, place the heart shaped chocolates on top.

Wrap these Hot Chocolate Sticks in some transparent wrapping paper, surprise your Valentine, and enjoy your hot chocolate together!
