My name is Dana Nunemacher and I am a Susquehanna County Dairy Ambassador. If you're looking to start a new holiday tradition, then here is the recipe for you. "Creamy Crock Pot Hot Chocolate" is the perfect holiday drink that leave you feeling warm and toasty while giving you a dose of dairy.
In this recipe, many of the ingredients are dairy based. Drinking milk is a great way to fill up with Vitamin D. There are other important nutrients such as potassium, and Vitamin A that can be found in milk. Also, milk will help with bone growth and development as it is full of calcium.
Happy Holidays from your Susquehanna Dairy Promotion Team!
