Creamy White Hot Chocolate
A rich and dreamy cup of white hot chocolate that tastes like a warm hug in a mug.
recipesbynani.comThere is nothing quite like a steaming mug of white hot chocolate when the weather turns cold. It is a wonderful alternative to traditional cocoa and has such a lovely, sweet vanilla flavor that kids and adults both adore.
My favorite trick for this recipe is to use real white chocolate chips instead of the candy coating bars, as they melt down much smoother. If you want to make it extra fancy, add a dollop of fresh whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
🧺 Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup high quality white chocolate chips
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A tiny pinch of salt

Pour into your favorite mugs and serve while warm.
💡 Tips
Store any leftovers in the fridge and reheat them gently on the stove. I love serving this with a few marshmallows or a light dusting of cocoa powder for contrast.
