Brownies, Gingerbread & Hot Chocolate: Winter & Holiday Comfort Foods! (Southern Cooking Recipes)

On a cold winter's night, my mother would always have brownies or gingerbread ready for our family night parties or a quick dessert. She would serve hot chocolate and we would enjoy family night fun and spending time together. I share this same tradition with my family today.

I have included our favorite brownie, gingerbread and hot chocolate recipes. If coffee is your preferred beverage, included are our favorite dessert coffee recipes. There is nothing wrong with using a brownie mix. You can take a package brownie mix from plain to gourmet in a snap with these quick recipes.

What would the holidays be without gingerbread? Don't just save these recipes for holidays. Serve these delicious gingerbread recipes year round. Hot chocolate and dessert coffees are served often in the winter. Pots and pots of chocolate and coffee are served at church dinners and parties.
