There is something so decadent about white chocolate and it is my husband’s absolute favourite, so I try to make this lovely homemade white hot chocolate at least once during the cold season. I first made this about 10 years ago and it is always such a treat every time we make it. So velvety and good! And when you add some pink heart-shaped marshmallows, it becomes the perfect Valentine’s treat!
Although homemade hot chocolate takes some extra time, the results are so worth it! And it is such a delicious change from traditional hot chocolate. Make it for your children, apres skiing, or for guests on a chilly winter evening!
White Hot Chocolate
To Gather:
4 cups milk
1/2 cup good quality white hot chocolate, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla
whipped cream
marshmallows
Valentine’s Day pareils
To Make:
1. To a medium sauce pan, add milk, white chocolate and vanilla.
2. Melt slowly and gently on medium low heat, whisking often, until hot chocolate mix is completely smooth. {Do not let boil}
3. Divide evenly between 4 mugs and garnish with whipped cream, pareils and marshmallows
I also think that this would be so cute to serve during a winter birthday party too.
Or to make for any little girls who love pink or Fancy Nancy!
If you haven’t tried white hot chocolate before, it is such a nice change from the usual!
