Decadent Hot Chocolate
Serves: 4
I had a friend visit and he doesn’t drink coffee but loves hot chocolate. Therefore I didn’t just want to whisk together a packaged drink, instead I created this decadent version which you can top off with any trimming. You will never want a quick and easy powdered packaged hot chocolate again. Truly sinful.....
Ingredients
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup cocoa
Pinch of salt
3 cups whole milk
1 cup whip cream
½ cups finely chopped dark chocolate
1 tsp vanilla
Directions
Whisk together sugar, cocoa and salt in a medium bowl
Stir together milk and whip cream in measuring cup
Whisk ¼ cup of liquid into cocoa mixture stir until mixture is smooth
Pour cocoa mixture into large sauce pan and turn heat to medium
Slowly pour in the rest of the milk cream mixture until well blended
Add chopped chocolate and keep whisking as the milk starts to heat
Whisk in vanilla and keep mixing until hot chocolate is almost boiling
Pour into four mugs
Have everyone choose their own toppings. I had marshmallows, whip cream, shredded chocolate and crushed peppermint for my options.
Other toppings you can add to your hot chocolate bar are
Sprinkles
Peanuts
Peanut butter
Coconut shavings
Cinnamon
Caramel sauce
