Ingredients You’ll Need

- Whole milk – I like whole milk for this recipe just because it helps with the creaminess. You could use whatever milk you like.

- Heavy cream – You can use heavy cream or half and half.
- Sweetened condensed milk – Using sweetened condensed milk instead of sugar adds a sweet creaminess.
- Vanilla extract – Adds a mild vanilla flavor. You can leave it out if you want.
- Toppings – These are optional, but fun! Whipped cream, chocolate shavings, cinnamon, marshmallows, and sprinkles.
Equipment Needed
- Crock Pot – I use this Hamilton Beach slow cooker
- Whisk
- Ladle

Tips & Notes
- If the mixture is too thick for your liking add more milk.
- If you have chocolate chips don’t incorporate fully use a stick blender quickly to break it up.
- If you are in a hurry you can use the high setting on your Crock Pot, just make sure to watch it closely so the chocolate doesn’t burn.
- You can use different types of chocolate. Experiment with milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and even white chocolate.
Variations and Add-ins
- Spice it up – Use spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, chili powder, and even cayenne pepper.
- Add flavorings – Use peppermint or orange extract, flavored syrups, caramel sauce, or Dalgona whipped coffee.
- Make it boozie – Add peppermint schnapps, rum chata, or kahlua.
- Add your favorite toppings – There are so many great toppings such as whipped cream, marshmallows, mini chocolate chips, candy canes, and sprinkles.
