Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup miniature marshmallows
- 6 cups whole milk, or 2% or 1% if you don't want it quite as rich
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Toppings: marshmallows, whipped cream, crushed candy canes, chocolate syrup, salted caramel, sprinkles, orange slices, cinnamon, etc.
Instructions
- Combine the water, cocoa powder, sugar and marshmallows in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until marshmallows are dissolved.
- In a slow cooker, combine the milk, cream, chopped semisweet chocolate and vanilla. Stir in the cocoa powder mixture. Heat on low for 4-6 hours, stirring well once an hour so that the chocolate that settles on the bottom does not burn.
Notes
- If you don't have a slow cooker or want your hot chocolate to be ready faster, you can cook this in a large dutch oven or pot over medium-low heat, until the chocolate is melted, stirring occasionally to make sure the chocolate doesn't burn.
