Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ¾ cup chocolate chips about ¾ cup or 140 g
- 2 tablespoon peppermint syrup
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan and whisk regularly over medium heat.
- Once all the chocolate has melted (ensure that no chocolate sticks to the bottoms/sides) and the milk is warmed to your liking, pour into 2 heat safe mugs.
Notes
- Adjust the milk and cream ratio to less cream and more milk if the consistency is too thick for your liking.
- Avoid letting it boil because it can make the milk and cream curdle.
- Ensure that you whisk the hot chocolate mixture constantly so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the saucepan.
