In need of comfort? I can’t guarantee this will make you feel better. And I certainly wont claim it’s better than a cuddle (what’s better than a cuddle for comfort?). But it is nourishing, it is delicious and it is a treat you can give yourself to make your morning a little cosier.
Interested?
It’s so easy. In fact I came up with this in a matter of seconds when I was pregnant with Oliver, and found myself with surplus Golden Milk Hot Chocolate and a serious porridge craving!
I hope you like it if you try it! I’ll be popping back tomorrow with an entirely different, extra special recipe in conjunction with some fun food-related news.
Until then, happy new week!
