Ingredients
- 400 grams cooking white chocolate
- 400 mls double cream
- 1 litre milk semi or whole
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Simply break your chocolate up into squares and put them into your pot.
- Pour in the cream, milk and vanilla extract.
- Cook on High for 2 and a half hours or 3-4 hours on Low. Stir every 30 minutes. Leave on Low to keep the hot chocolate warm.
- Top with whatever toppings you fancy. My family love the classic, whipped cream, mini marshmallows and heavy on the chocolate sauce.
Notes
I've made this a big batch for 8 because I tend to mostly do this when I have people coming round but simply halve for a smaller chocolatey affair.
To make this a vegan hot chocolate then use vegan chocolate and milk. Vegan cream is not the easiest to heat so probably better to stick with just the milk. It will not be so creamy and velvety as this dairy version.
Store leftovers in the fridge covered.
You can totally make this recipe on the hob. Simply heat through over a gentle heat stirring frequently until the chocolate is melted and the whole mixture is hot enough.
To make the chocolate frothy then whip it well just before serving in the slow cooker pot. You can buy battery operated little whiskers which are great.
To reheat after being in the fridge reheat in a saucepan over a low heat or back in the slow cooker. Stir well as the chocolate tends to come to the surface and separate again.
