After a sudden week off last weekend due to high COVID cases amongst the football team/staff, apparently the Ohio State Buckeyes are back at it today at noon playing at Michigan State. It feels so weird to have regular season games past Thanksgiving weekend. Heck I had barely adjusted to having a game on Thanksgiving weekend and it’s been 9 years.

But I digress. Other than cookies I have not been overly motivated to cook lately so for todays #PBchocSat I went with an easy peasy boozy buckeye hot chocolate made to look fancy thanks to these double walled glasses. Extra points because it’s freaking cold out and I don’t want to leave my blanket cocoon.

I made this with my homemade hot cocoa mix, powdered peanut butter, and Skrewball peanut butter whiskey, but you could also make it with my homemade peanut butter hot cocoa mix! Or skip the extra peanut butter if for some reason you think the peanut butter flavor in the whiskey is enough. I personally don’t think there is ever enough peanut butter.

Don’t forget the whipped cream and buckeye for garnish!
