Homemade Hot Chocolate Recipe

There's nothing quite as comforting as a mug of rich, creamy homemade hot chocolate. This easy recipe uses simple ingredients to create a decadent drink perfect for cozying up on a chilly day.

Ingredients (Serves 2):

  • 2 cups milk (whole milk, almond milk, or any milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips (for extra creaminess)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Toppings:

  • Whipped cream
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder
  • Cinnamon stick

Instructions

1. Combine Dry Ingredients:

In a small saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt. This ensures the cocoa powder doesn’t clump when you add the liquid.

2. Add Milk:

Pour in about 2 tablespoons of milk and stir to create a smooth paste. Gradually whisk in the remaining milk.

3. Heat and Melt:

Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Heat until warm but not boiling.

4. Add Chocolate Chips:

Once the mixture is warm, stir in the chocolate chips. Continue stirring until the chocolate is completely melted and the hot chocolate is smooth.

5. Add Vanilla Extract:

Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

6. Serve:

Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and add your favorite toppings like whipped cream, marshmallows, or a dusting of cocoa powder.

Tips and Variations

  • Extra Creamy: Substitute 1/4 cup of milk with heavy cream for an ultra-luxurious hot chocolate.
  • Spiced Version: Add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or chili powder for a festive twist.
  • Vegan Option: Use plant-based milk and dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • Peppermint Hot Chocolate: Add a few drops of peppermint extract or stir with a candy cane for a holiday vibe.

Enjoy your homemade hot chocolate—it’s the ultimate cozy treat! ☕🍫
