This time of year, there’s no reason to not eat cookies, snuggle up with your sweetie, and indulge in a mug of piping hot cocoa topped with soy whipped cream by a crackling fire. What’s that?

With this how-to, you’ll be snuggling fireside in no time, or at least as soon as your guests leave. Happy holidays!
