Easy Strawberry Whipped Cream + Valentine’s Day Hot Cocoa
The adorable dress. The heels. The make up. No, thank you. Valentine’s Day is in the air, and while lots of moms are getting gussied up for the big day, I’m thinking pajamas, cuddling and the perfect Valentine’s Date Night In. Loving on my husband doesn’t mean we have to get fancy, especially with two little ones at home. Enjoying a sweet date night in is just what we need, and this Easy Strawberry Whipped Cream and Valentine’s Day Hot Cocoa is the crowning touching to our plans.
I can definitely say this is the busiest time of our lives. Between work schedules, school schedules, after school activities and a busy toddler, it can be overwhelming to even plan a date these days. Getting the stars, moon and our calendars to align perfectly…not so easy. So how are we keeping the spark alive? Date nights at home. A movie, a late night snack and us together is our idea of the perfect date as our kids snooze the night away.
A man’s love is through his tummy, and with my husband it’s no exception. This guy LOVES food, especially when it’s made with love. And with another cold front hitting Florida, it’s blankets and hot cocoa for the win. But I can certainly find a way to jazz up hot cocoa for my husband’s belly, right? So this easy homemade Strawberry Whipped Cream provides the perfect touch of “I love you” for our Valentine’s date night. Made quickly with a little Valentine’s Day inspiration, and we have a hot cocoa recipe that sweetens the mood so we can dive right into our night together.
Ready to whip up a batch of your own Strawberry Whipped Cream (yes, that pun was intended)? Here’s your recipe for love!

We drink TruMoo all the time, but mostly just the chocolate flavored milk. Those are great beverages for this time of year. I didn’t know hat they had a TruMoo with marshmallows in it – even yummier!!
Plus right now there is a TruMoo contest: 2 WAYS TO VACAY SWEEPSTAKES. Codes are on the lids.
