Easy Hot Chocolate with Amaretto

Yesterday, it was dark and rainy all day long which naturally put me in the mood for hot chocolate.  I debated whether to make it the (better) old-fashioned way, on the stove, or the easy way.  It wasn't a lengthy debate because within seconds I was ripping open a packet of the instant stuff.  Whatever, that's not the point of this post.  What I really want to tell you about is the amaretto.  

I microwaved my mug of hot chocolate powder and water and then ~ this is where it gets good ~ added a splash (about a tablespoon) of amaretto.  Holy cow!  Why had I never done this before?

Seriously, go try it.  You can thank me later.

Cheers!
