Italian Hot Chocolate

Ciocolato. One of my favorite treats on the entire planet. If you've never had the pleasure of sitting in a cafe in Rome, Barcelona, or your bff's Italian grandmother's kitchen sipping (well, more like eating) this amazing treat, you've missed out. But fret not! Try your hand at this crazily easy and obnoxiously delicious dish.

I promise.

LORAC PRO Palette

Happy New Years! I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season. Today we'll be going over one of my favorite goodies that Santa delivered:
