Ingredients
2 tablespoons hot chocolate mix
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
5 tablespoons heavy cream
¾ cup milk (or chocolate milk for extra richness)
Optional toppings:
Mini marshmallows
Chocolate shavings
Sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the Whipped Chocolate: In a mixing bowl, combine the hot chocolate mix and granulated sugar. Add the heavy cream. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- Heat the Milk: While the whipped chocolate is forming, heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat until warm (but not boiling). Alternatively, microwave the milk in a mug for 1–2 minutes.
- Assemble the Drink: Pour the warm milk into a mug. Gently spoon the whipped chocolate mixture on top of the milk.
- Garnish and Serve: Add mini marshmallows, chocolate shavings, or sprinkles on top for extra flavor and decoration. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For a vegan version, use plant-based milk (like almond or oat milk) and coconut cream or non-dairy whipping cream for the topping.
- Add vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the whipped chocolate for added flavor.
- For a chilled treat, serve the whipped chocolate over ice-cold milk.
