cozily
In comfortable warmth
Cozily means in a cozy manner—snug, warm, and comfortable.
Someone curled up cozily under a blanket enjoys pleasant warmth and contentment.
The word can also suggest comfortable intimacy: The couple sat cozily by the fire.
Sometimes it carries a hint of suspicion about overly comfortable arrangements: The politician was cozily connected to industry lobbyists.
