Can you believe it is November already? Time is just flying
by! I know as soon as 11/1 hit, it was time for the holidays in our home we are
ready for Christmas songs and fun family parties and lots of great events. The
holiday season is my favorite time of year, it just brings me so much joy and
happiness, giving and sharing. With the help of Zak
Designs I was able to hold a fun Zak Holiday Movie Night! Out of all the
holiday movies out there what movie did we choose to enjoy of this special
movie night? Well one of our most favorite of course!
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation! What is a movie night without cuddling up with some hot coco, and some yummy snacks? We decided to make some sweet cookies to snack on while we enjoyed the movie. I made a family favorite, and would love to share the recipe with you all, for Hot Chocolate cookies.
Yummy chewy Hot
Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients
2 cups butter softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup cocoa powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 cup mini marshmallows
½ cup tiny marshmallows (the freeze dried kind) 
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix the wet ingredients, then
the dry. Mix in chips and classic mini marshmallows (set aside freeze dried
marshmallows). Roll cookies into small balls no larger than a quarter, and
place of cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake for about 10 minutes. As soon as the
cookies are out of the oven sprinkle with freeze dried marshmallows. Let cool
before enjoying.
Of course we all had to enjoy our hot chocolate out of the
fun Zak Designs holiday mugs. Zak Designs has an amazing selection of holiday
mugs that would make a great gift for that special someone on your holiday gift
list. From the classics to modern day classics.
There are so many great mugs on
the site, our favorites being the Christmas
Story Movie Coffee Mug - Leg
Lamp, this scene made the movie! Fragile! It’s Italian… Adorable mugs like the Elf Coffee Mug – Buddy, to the Bumbles
Coffee Mug - Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer mug!
My daughter quickly
claimed the Elf coffee mug, for her hot chocolate, which she used to dip her
hot chocolate cookies, now that is a treat! The mugs retail for $12.99. Not
a bad price at all you could pick up a bunch and fill them with cookies or
sweets, this would make a great holiday gift for just about anyone! We had such
a fun time watching the film, and just hanging together as a family.
I had a blast it was great just to hang out in my National
Lampoons Christmas Vacation PJ’s (recognize these from the film?) and sipping
some hot coco from the cool National
Lampoon Coffee Mug - Jelly of
the Month Club mug. 
It is the gift the keeps on giving the whole year through!
