Instructions
- Add half s of heavy cream and the unsweetened cocoa to the slow cooker. Using a whisk, mix for several minutes until the powder is fully combined.
- Add the second half of the heavy cream, milk, sweetened condensed milk, chopped chocolate, and vanilla. Stir until everything is mixed.
- Place the slow cooker on low for 2-3 hours. Stir every 20-30 minutes just until the chocolate is melted and fully combined.
- Keep on the warm setting for up to 3 hours for serving and enjoy!
Notes
- This hot chocolate is really thick and creamy. If the hot chocolate gets too thick while in the slow cooker, stir in more milk to your desired thickness. I start with adding between a 1/4 and 1/2 of a cup at a time so I don't accidentally make it too thin.
- Chocolate chips can be used in place of baker's chocolate. I recommend semi-sweet chocolate chips for the best results.
- This recipe can not be cooked on high as it heats the cream too hot and will start to seperate.
- You can cook this creamy hot chocolate on the stove. Follow the instructions for combining the ingredients. Bring the entire pot of hot chocolate to a low simmer. (Do not boil, keep the heat around medium.) Simmer for 5-10 minutes stirring frequently until the chocolate has fully melted into the hot chocolate. Serve and enjoy.
