Hot cocoa season is finally here, and I’m making my hot cocoa extra special with Supernatural coconut sugar, which gives the cocoa a deep, fudge-like sweetness. I top the hot cocoa with Cloetta Juleskum (marshmallow Santas), which are actually made in Sweden, but which have been part of my Danish holiday candy traditions for as long as I remember. The marshmallow Santas are chewier and denser than your typical US marshmallow, with a delicious strawberry flavor. They are perfect for dipping, but you can also let one melt on top as it will turn it into a gooey treat that you can then slurp up and enjoy.
