For the Hot Chocolate:
- 4 cups heavy cream, divided
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 cups whole milk
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 12 ounces semi-sweet baking bar, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add 2 cups of the heavy cream to the slow cooker. Whisk in the cocoa powder until fully combined, this might take a while. (see note below.)

- Place on low for 3 hours, stirring every 20 minutes or so until the chocolate is melted and fully combined.
- Switch to the warm setting for up to 3 hours for serving. If the hot chocolate gets too thick while it sits, you can stir in more milk to your desired thickness.
