Warm Up This Winter With a Hot Cocoa Themed Party

Jan 28, 2017

Here at B+C, we are always down for a party. Bachelor party, Galentine’s brunch party — you name it, and we will create a party to celebrate. Today we are all about our favorite warm winter beverage (you know the one that’s just like a melted candy bar), hot cocoa! We are adding hot cocoa to our waffles and wings to create a full hot cocoa spread to blow all your guests away. Finish off your party decor with a tea cup piñata and a balloon arch of hot cocoa steam. Turn on Netflix and get warm and cozy with all your BFFs.

Hot Cocoa Chicken Wings

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound chicken wings
  • 1/2 cup hot cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 4 Tablespoons oil
  • 1 cup Cocoa Krispies
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

  1. Mix spices into oil and massage onto the chicken wings.
  2. Crush up the Cocoa Krispies in a large plastic bag. Add in flour, hot cocoa powder and mix together. Dump in the wings and shake until they’re all covered.
  3. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake for 30 mins at 300 degrees Fahrenheit. (Flip over after the first 15 minutes to cook both sides.) Raise the oven to 475 degrees and cook for 15 minutes.

Mix all the spices together in oil and then massage onto the chicken wings.

Crush up the Cocoa Krispies, then pour in the flour and hot cocoa powder. Shake until combined. Dump in the chicken wings and shake again.

Lay them out on a greased pan. Cook for 30 minutes at 300 degrees Fahrenheit (flip them over when the timer hits 15 minutes), then raise the oven to 475 degrees and cook for another 15 minutes.

Hot Cocoa Waffles

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup hot cocoa
  • 4 Tablespoons of melted butter
  • 1 1/3 cup of flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg

Instructions:

  1. Mix the wet ingredients together and then dump in the dry ingredients. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Grease the waffle iron and pour on the waffle batter.

Mix the wet ingredients together and then add in the dry ingredients. Whisk until smooth.

Make a waffle, and then make some more!

Add marshmallows in between the waffle layers and torch for an extra crisp.

Top with cocoa fried chicken and drizzle with a caramel glaze.

Boozy Hot Cocoa

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup hot cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup whiskey

Instructions:

  1. In a sauce pan or pot, add the cocoa, chocolate chips, sugar, chili powder and milk. Melt over medium high, stirring constantly. Bring the hot chocolate to a steam, then remove from heat.
  2. Add the whiskey, and divide the hot chocolate between two or three mugs.

Melt all that chocolatey goodness together over medium heat. Remove from the stove and then add in the whiskey.

This recipe will make 2-3 cups of hot cocoa. Top with marshmallows and torch for a s’more vibe.

No party is complete without a piñata! Create a large tea-cup piñata and a steamy balloon backdrop for all of your guests to use as a photo booth.

If you didn’t know — chicken and waffles is one of my favorite meals. This chocolate take on a Southern classic is actually to die for. Trust me.

I think all booze should come in the form of hot cocoa with torched marshmallows.

I would make these chicken wings on the regular. The hot cocoa powder gives the wings a sweet, tangy crunch and a flavor you would never expect. Everyone in the office was 100 percent on board with these wings.

I’ll be taking this plate — thank youuu.

Cheers!

More Galentine's Day Party Ideas

A pom pom and lantern wall is literally the perfect way to add some texture to any Galentine's Day party! Plus, you can reuse them for upcoming bachelorette parties and baby showers.

Take a simple white table cloth (bonus points if it's paper) and paint "XOXO" across it for a personalized, romantic addition to your table.

Never underestimate the power of gold letter balloons. They're our favorite!

In lieu of flowers, fill some of your favorite vases with all kinds of red and pink candies.

If a pure candy charcuterie board is overwhelming, opt for a mix — supplement chocolate, marshmallows, and strawberries with meat and cheese for a board that's both lunch and dessert.

Mix up your Galentine's Day party mimosa bar by providing different juices and different garnishes that your guests can choose from.

Letter boards are a super easy and super fun way to add spunk to your party. Plus, they don't take up a lot of room, so that's a win-win for us!

Grapefruit juice is the perfect addition to your Galentine's Day party's pink cocktails — or to sparkling water for a low-key mocktail.

Candlesticks, jars, cake trays, oh my! The more dishes, the better as far as we're concerned.

It's easier than ever to find super cute, super sassy napkins. It's a small touch that goes a long way!

Mini bottles of champagne aren't just good for your Galentine's Day party — have everyone write a goal on their bottle, and wait to pop it until that goal is achieved!

Find heart-shaped plates to add extra romance to your tablescape.

Galentine's Day Party Favor Ideas

Miniature potted plants are as cute as can be, and when they're wrapped in pink napkins? To die for.

Cupid would totally approve of these red candy kabobs.

If you have a collection of white bags for your Galentine's Day party favors, go crazy with the designs! Draw hearts, arrows, or write a little note to each of your friends.

Nothing says "I love you" like knowing your friend's favorites — which means you'll knock beauty product gift bags out of the park.

Red lollipops get a fruity upgrade when you wrap their sticks in green tape. Voilà!! The cherry on top of all your Galentine's Day festivities.

Wall envelopes are the perfect place to stash all your candy — or a super artsy Galentine's Day note.

Less is more with a Galentine's Day party favor that lets your BFF know how much she means to you.

A little bit of thoughtful wrapping makes a colorful bouquet even more beautiful than it already is!

Add tiny bows to all your champagne bottles for a true coquette party theme.

Use a pair of scalloped scissors to turn regular gift bags into something even more eye-catching!

Galentine's Day party favors don't *just* have to be candy and cards — celebrate your friends' hobbies with thoughtful gifts, too!

We'll literally never say no to chocolate, especially when it includes flower petals!

The 8 Worst Netflix Shows With Horrible Rotten Tomatoes Scores: "Can't Name One Good Thing."

Netflix has given us some bangers (hello Nobody Wants This!) but, according to TV viewers, it's also given us some epic flops. Whether the scripts fell flat or the actors had no chemistry, these are the worst TV shows on Netflix you can watch right now — with Rotten Tomatoes ratings of less than 40 percent! Listen, sometimes we all need a good hate watch while we're doing chores right? Is that just me? Anyway, let's get into it.

Here are the 8 worst Netflix shows you can stream in 2025.

1. The I-Land (2019)

Netflix

The I-Land has been compared to Lost, and it's a comparison that (somewhat) rings true. 10 people wake up on an island with one another...and without their memories. Unfortunately the 8 percent RT score proves this series missed the mark. "I-Land was terrible acting, just nothing redeemable," one Reddit user says. "They even green screened most of the beach scenes."

The I-Land stars Kate Bosworth, Ronald Peet, Michelle Veintimilla, Sibylla Deen, Gilles Geary, Kota Eberhardt, and Kyle Schmid.

2. Girlboss (2017)

Karen Ballard/Netflix

Sophia Amoruso might be rebellious and creative, but Netflix watchers aren't a fan of this TV show (and it has nothing to do with the fact we're in the post-girlboss era). "Some of the outfits were really cool but the main character was absolutely insufferable and had no redeeming qualities," one Reddit user points out.

The show, which follows Sophia's rise to business woman through selling vintage clothes online, has a 35 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Girlboss stars Britt Robertson, Ellie Reed, Alphonso McAuley, Johnny Simmons, and Dean Norris.

3. Another Life (2019)

Eike Schroter/Netflix

Another Life follows Niko, an astronaut on the hunt for AI. Except in this Netflix show, AI stands for alien intelligence. That means Niko and her crew are in for some serious alien danger, but unfortunately, according to the 6 percent RT score, that danger isn't enough to hook viewers.

Another Life stars Katee Sackhoff, Justin Chatwin, Samuel Anderson, Blu Hunt, A.J. Rivera, Jake Abel, Alex Ozerov, Alexander Eling, Jay R Tinaco, Lina Renna, Selma Blair, and Elizabeth Ludlow.

4. Sex/Life (2021)

Netflix

Viewers consider Sex/Life — which follows a love triangle between a woman, her husband, and a special someone from her past — to be one of the worst Netflix shows because "the acting and the writing was so, so, so bad," according to a Reddit user. "It was so corny and felt like fan fiction." And the 40 percent RT score agrees.

Sex/Life stars Sarah Shahi, Mike Vogel, Adam Demos, Margaret Odette, Cleo Anthony, and Darius Homayoun.

5. Echoes (2022)

Netflix

Leni and Gina are identical twins who have secretly swapped lives since childhood. But everything about their perfectly-curated double lives spirals when one sister goes missing. Sound gripping? The RT score of 22 percent says otherwise.

Echoes stars Michelle Monaghan, Matt Bomer, Daniel Sunjata, Ali Stroker, Karen Robinson, Rosanny Zayas, Michael O'Neill, Celia Weston, Gable Swanlund, and Jonathan Tucker.

6. Blockbuster (2023)

Ricardo Hubbs/Netflix

Blockbuster stars fan favorite actors like Melissa Fumero and Randall Park. But not even the incredible cast could save this Netflix show, which follows the last Blockbuster video store in the country, from a 23 percent RT score.

Blockbuster stars Randall Park, Melissa Fumero, Olga Merediz, Tyler Alvarez, and Madeleine Arthur.

In Insatiable, a recently-thin Patty is out for revenge on anyone who ever fat-shamed her, and a beauty pageant sounds like a great place to start. The show has a 12 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes and one Reddit user says they "can’t name one good thing about it." Yikes.

Insatiable stars Dallas Roberts, Debby Ryan, Christopher Gorham, Sarah Colonna, Erinn Westbrook, Kimmy Shields, Michael Provost, Irene Choi, Alyssa Milano, and Arden Myrin.

8. 13 Reasons Why (2017)

This Netflix show might have been an iconic pop culture moment, but the 35 percent RT rating shows it's not necessarily an enjoyable one. The series follows Clay, who receives 13 voice tapes from a girl named Hannah after she takes her own life — and each tape details one reason she ended her life.

13 Reasons Why stars Dylan Minnette, Katherine Langford, Christian Navarro, Alisha Boe, Brandon Flynn, Justin Prentice, Miles Heizer, Ross Butler, Devin Druid, Amy Hargreaves, Derek Luke, Kate Walsh, Brian d'Arcy James, Grace Saif, Brenda Strong, Timothy Granaderos, Mark Pellegrino, Tyler Barnhardt, Jan Luis Castellanos, Deaken Bluman, and Gary Sinise.
