Ingredients
- 4 cups Milk
- 1 bag White Chocolate chips (12 oz)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- Warm the milk: Pour 4 cups of milk into a saucepan and warm it over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to bring it to a boil; you want it hot but not scalding.
- Add the white chocolate chips: Once the milk is warm, add 12 oz of white chocolate chips to the saucepan. Stir continuously as the chocolate melts, creating a smooth and creamy mixture.
- Flavor the drink: Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. The salt enhances the sweetness and flavors of the white chocolate and vanilla.
- Serve and enjoy: Pour the white hot chocolate into mugs and serve immediately. Optionally, top with whipped cream or marshmallows for an extra indulgent touch.
Notes
- Do not boil the milk to prevent it from scorching and curdling.
- Use good quality white chocolate chips for the best flavor and creaminess.
- You can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for a spiced variation.
- For a vegan option, substitute dairy milk with almond, soy, or oat milk and use vegan white chocolate chips.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat gently to avoid separation.
