Author:
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 1½ cups milk (whole, skim, almond, etc)
  • 4 oz white chocolate, roughly chopped
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup brewed coffee, plus more if needed
  • ¼-1/2 tsp peppermint extract, to taste
  • Whipped cream, for topping (optional)
  • Crushed candy canes, for topping (optional)
Instructions
  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine milk, white chocolate, vanilla extract, and coffee. Stir constantly until chocolate has fully melted and steam rises from the top of the mixture.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in peppermint extract, to taste. Start with a bit and work your way up slowly - peppermint extract can be quite potent!
  3. Served topped with whipped cream and crushed candy canes, if desired.
Notes
*I use skim milk, because that's what I normally drink, but use whatever you prefer. The higher the fat content you use, the ricer the hot chocolate will be.
