Ingredients

  • 1 gallon chocolate milk
  • 1 pint heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Pour chocolate milk, heavy whipping cream, and white chocolate chips into a crock pot. Cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours {until chips are melted and drink is warm}. Turn to warm setting and serve.

Notes

Recipe Notes:
  • Warm it low and slow, stir occasionally, and avoid boiling to prevent scorching.
  • Use quality chips for the smoothest melt, Ghirardelli performs beautifully.
  • Keep it on the crock pot warm setting for serving, set out whipped cream, marshmallows, and crushed peppermint for a fun cocoa bar.
  • Make ahead, chill up to 3 days, then reheat gently on the stove or in the crock pot until steaming, not boiling.
  • Freeze leftovers in ice cube trays, pop cubes into a mug with a splash of milk, and microwave for a quick treat.
Freeze leftover hot chocolate in ice cube trays. Then you can pop a few cubes, and extra milk in a mug and microwave it. Try using it within 1-3 months of freezing.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave and larger portions can be heated on the stove or in the crockpot.
