CHRISTMAS EVE CREAMY SLOW-COOKER HOT CHOCOLATE RECIPE - (4/5)



Christmas Eve Creamy Slow-Cooker Hot Chocolate Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by á-5050

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
2 cups milk chocolate chips
6 cups of milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, milk, and vanilla into the slow-cooker until well heated and chips melt.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the hot chocolate will be. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't use unsweetened chocolate. Unsweetened chocolate will make your hot chocolate bitter. Use semisweet or bittersweet chocolate instead.
  • Add a little bit of salt. Salt helps to balance the sweetness of the chocolate and bring out its flavor.
  • Use whole milk or cream. Whole milk or cream will make your hot chocolate richer and creamier. You can also use a combination of milk and cream.
  • Don't boil the milk. Boiling the milk will make it lose its flavor. Heat the milk until it is just simmering.
  • Add your chocolate to the hot milk slowly. This will help to prevent the chocolate from clumping.
  • Stir constantly until the chocolate is melted. Once the chocolate is melted, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for hot chocolate include whipped cream, marshmallows, grated chocolate, and candy canes.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker hot chocolate is a delicious and easy way to enjoy your favorite winter beverage. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a pot of hot chocolate that will warm you up from the inside out. So next time you're craving something sweet and chocolatey, give this slow cooker hot chocolate recipe a try.
