Creamy Nutella Crockpot Hot Chocolate
Description
This hot chocolate recipe uses whole milk as the base, enriched with cocoa powder, generous Nutella, and milk chocolate chips. Cooking on low temperature in a slow cooker for two hours allows the chocolate and hazelnut flavors to fully integrate without scorching. The continual gentle heat produces a creamy texture and deep chocolate flavor.
The drink can be served with various toppings including marshmallows, chocolate syrup, whipped cream, or grated chocolate to enhance its richness. For those preferring an adult version, liquor shots can be added to individual servings to preserve alcohol content.
An alternative method involves heating the mixture in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring until smooth and gently simmering, providing more control over cooking time and temperature for smaller batches.
Ingredients
- 8 cups milk whole
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 13 oz jar Nutella (chocolate hazelnut spread)
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
TOPPING IDEAS
- mini marshmallows
- chocolate syrup
- Whipped Cream
- chocolate shaved or grated
- liquor shot
Instructions
- Add milk, cocoa powder, nutella, and chocolate chips to a 4qt slow cooker. Whisk to combine, cover, and cook on LOW for 2 hours... stirring occasionally.
- Serve topped with desired toppings! If adding liquor, add it to individual mugs, rather than the whole slow cooker, so the alcohol doesn't cook off.
Notes
- Alternatively, prepare this hot chocolate on the stove by heating and stirring ingredients over medium heat until smooth and simmering, then serve.
- Toppings such as mini marshmallows, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, or grated chocolate enhance the presentation and flavor.
- If adding liquor, add it to individual servings rather than the whole pot to maintain alcohol content.
