Prep Time 5 minutes mins
Cook Time 10 minutes mins
Total Time 15 minutes mins
- 1 1/2 cups milk of choice (I prefer whole or soy!)
- 2 oz chopped dark chocolate
- 2 oz chopped white chocolate
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tsp red gel dye
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- whipped cream and festive sprinkles, for garnish
In a small saucepan, combine the milk, chopped dark and white chocolates, and cocoa powder. Heat over medium-low, whisking, until the milk is steaming. Shut off the burner, add the red dye, and continue whisking for another 5 minutes until the chocolate is melted. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the cocoa into your favorite cozy mug and top with whipped cream and sprinkles, as desired.
