I like to make like, super rich and concentrated hot chocolate on the stove so I can store it in my fridge and then like, dilute it a bit, reheat it and it's the perfect richness balance for whatever I'm feeling that day. It's one of those things i don't really measure ingredients for because it's very difficult to do it wrong- it's just about making sure you like the taste. So, uh, I got distracted while I was making it (because i have a mouse in the walls of my apartment and a dog who loses his mind every time he hears said mouse and insists on telling me about it) and long story short there is like a gallon of hot cocoa concentrate in my fridge now whoops

#personal #this is a very silly problem to have i am aware #i need more people locally i can call up and be like 'i made too much of this thing pls come eat/drink it'#it's sort of an 'if you give a mouse a cookie' situation bc i was cleaning out my fridge #and was like 'this heavy cream is about to be past it's date lemme do something with it that will keep'#so i just made some salted caramel sauce bc it keeps forever and i also had butter i wanted to use up #plus you can dip apples in it for a lil treat and it's tasty #and then was like 'whoops this is too much caramel sauce lemme put this in something that will get used sooner'#hence the hot cocoa #bc there was also milk i wanted to use up before it turned #and like it's very tasty but there is a LOT OF IT in my fridge
