Ingredients
Scale
Whipped Chocolate Cream
- 2 tablespoons dry hot chocolate mix
- 5 tablespoons heavy cream
Warm Chocolate Milk
- 3 cups chocolate milk
Instructions
- Whip the Chocolate Cream: In a mixing bowl, whisk the dry hot chocolate mix together with the heavy cream until the mixture becomes stiff and creamy, forming soft peaks.
- Warm the Chocolate Milk: Gently heat the chocolate milk on the stovetop over low-medium heat or in the microwave until it is warm but not boiling, around 2-3 minutes.
- Pour Warm Milk: Pour the warmed chocolate milk evenly into two serving glasses or mugs.
- Add Whipped Chocolate Topping: Spoon or pipe the whipped hot chocolate cream on top of the warm milk in each glass, creating a fluffy layer.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally garnish with chocolate shavings, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a few mini marshmallows before serving immediately.
Notes
- Use a cold mixing bowl for easier whipping of the cream.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of hot chocolate mix.
- Do not overheat the milk to avoid burning or forming a skin.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute heavy cream and chocolate milk with coconut cream and almond milk chocolate.
- Garnishes like cinnamon or peppermint can add festive flair.
