Hello, fabulous mamas! If you're reading this, you're probably somewhere between your glorious pregnancy days and the delightful chaos of your toddler unleashing their inner Picasso on your walls. Congratulations! You've survived the 12-to-24-months-postpartum rollercoaster with style—possibly in mismatched socks and baby spit-up, but style nonetheless. Let's celebrate with a recipe that's not just comfort food—it's the glam mug of cocoa for your tired soul.

Warning: This recipe requires zero culinary skills. If your cat can open a tin of tuna, you can make this!
