At the beginning of each month we will feature a favorite recipe which we recommend. Every recipe featured in this section has been prepared by one of us and we feel you will enjoy trying it too! A favorite of my children and their friends. This delicious morning treat will be welcomed on a cold winter morning with a cup of hot cocoa. Even teenagers wake up to join you for breakfast!
