As a child I did not like milk. I’m getting close to 70 and still don’t like milk. My granny used to make her “special” milk to get me to drink it. She used milk, sugar and vanilla. I thought her milk was the best ever. My granddaughter refuses to drink milk now. Of course I make the “special” recipe for her. Never thought to heat it up but that sounds yummy!!
Heating up your vanilla milk really makes such a difference. I know your granddaughter will love it!
Wow oh wow! That crockpot hot vanilla looks so amazing and decadent! I must try this over the holidays! In fact this is getting me super excited for the holidays!!!
You will LOVE it, Christie! I even make it as a treat for myself in the summer when I’m dreaming of the holidays! 🙂
It’s a blazing hot summer, and I still want to make it. 🙂
I’m in Phoenix, and actually love to make this year round, too! 🙂
Oh my gosh, these looks so delicious! Such a good change from the class hot chocolate that my kids are forever begging for!
Absolutely… it really is such a fun way to change things up!
