Hot Cocoa Inspired by The Santa Clause

Hot Cocoa Inspired by The Santa Clause

This Hot Cocoa Inspired by The Santa Clause is a festive, cozy treat reminiscent of the hot chocolate that Tim Allen's character, Scott Calvin, enjoys in the movie. It's rich, creamy, and topped with all the decadent goodies you'd expect to bring a little holiday magic to your day.

Ingredients:

For the Hot Cocoa:

  • 2 cups whole milk (or milk of your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

For the Toppings:

  • Whipped cream (generously piled)
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Crushed candy canes or peppermint bits
  • Shaved chocolate or chocolate chips
  • Cinnamon stick (optional, for garnish)
  • A dash of ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional)

Instructions:

1. Heat the Milk:

In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent it from burning. You want it to be hot but not boiling.

2. Make the Cocoa Mixture:

In a separate bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Once the milk is heated, whisk in the cocoa mixture, stirring until fully dissolved and the cocoa is smooth.

3. Serve:

Once the cocoa is fully mixed and smooth, pour it into a mug.

4. Add the Toppings:

Top your hot cocoa with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle with mini marshmallows, crushed candy canes, and shaved chocolate for an indulgent touch. You can also add a dash of ground cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor. Garnish with a cinnamon stick if you'd like a holiday touch.

Tips and Variations:

  • Peppermint Twist: Add a splash of peppermint extract to the cocoa for a minty flavor that’s perfect for the holidays.
  • Rich and Creamy: For an even richer taste, swap out some of the milk for heavy cream.
  • Chocolate Options: For a more decadent version, you can melt actual chocolate into the milk rather than using cocoa powder.

This Hot Cocoa Inspired by The Santa Clause will have you feeling cozy and festive, perfect for enjoying on a winter evening while watching holiday movies or spending time with loved ones. It’s a sweet reminder of the magic of Christmas! 🎅🍫
