Description
A rich and creamy white chocolate hot cocoa recipe that’s perfect for warming up on cold days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups half-and-half
- 11 to 12 ounces white chocolate chips
- 1/16 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
- Toppings as desired
Instructions
- Stovetop: Add all ingredients to a medium pot. Whisk the mixture continuously over medium-low heat until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Be careful not to let it boil. Once smooth, remove from heat and serve immediately. Add optional toppings like whipped cream, marshmallows, and a pirouette cookie if desired.
- Crockpot: In a 4-quart or larger slow cooker, add all ingredients, starting with the chocolate chips. Do not include the toppings at this stage. Cook the mixture on low (never high) for three hours. Briskly whisk the mixture at least once halfway through. After three hours, whisk the mixture until well combined. Serve warm and garnish with your choice of optional toppings, such as whipped cream, marshmallows, and a pirouette cookie.
Notes
- Note: For a sweeter taste, adjust the amount of chocolate chips to your preference.
