Ingredients
- 4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup hot chocolate mix
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream cold
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- Ice
Instructions
Prepare the Hot Chocolate Base:
- In a saucepan, heat 4 cups of milk over medium heat until it’s warm but not boiling.
- Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of hot chocolate mix, ensuring it’s well combined.
- Continue to heat the mixture until it’s hot, but again, avoid boiling. Once hot, remove it from the heat.
Chill the Hot Chocolate:
- Allow the hot chocolate mixture to cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate it until it’s cold. This can take a few hours or you can expedite the process by placing it in the freezer for a shorter duration.
Prepare the Whipped Cream:
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of cold heavy whipping cream and 4 tablespoons of sugar.
- Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, whip the cream and sugar mixture until stiff peaks form. This means the whipped cream should hold its shape.
Assemble the Whipped Chocolate Milk:
- Take the cold hot chocolate base out of the refrigerator.
- Pour the chilled hot chocolate into glasses over ice.
Top with Whipped Cream:
- Spoon generous dollops of the freshly whipped cream on top of each glass of chocolate milk.
Optional Garnish:
- You can optionally garnish the whipped chocolate milk with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or chocolate shavings for an extra touch of decadence.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Stir the whipped cream into the chocolate milk just before drinking.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Whipped Chocolate Milk!
Notes
- You can use dark chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, or even white chocolate for this recipe.
- For a lighter and fluffier texture, use half and half instead of heavy cream.
- To make a vegan version of this recipe, use almond or coconut milk instead of regular milk.
- For a richer flavor, use more chocolate syrup.
- If you want to add a little extra sweetness, add a teaspoon of honey or agave nectar.
- You can also top the whipped chocolate milk with fresh fruit, chocolate chips, or mini marshmallows for a fun twist.
