Rich and creamy crockpot hot chocolate...so easy to make, and perfect for cozy fall and winter days, holiday parties, and guests.
Ingredients
- 6 cupswhole milk (or 3 cups whole milk and 3 cups half and half)
- 2 cansevaporated milk ((2-12 oz. cans))
- 2 cupsheavy cream
- 2 teaspoonsvanilla
- 3 cupschocolate chips
Directions

Mix all the ingredients together in a 6 quart crockpot. Cook on low for 3-4 hours (or until heated through to your liking), stirring often the first hour, to make sure the chocolate incorporates and doesn't burn on the bottom. If you are in a crunch for time, you may need to start on high, to make sure it heats through faster. Stir every so often the first hour. Once it's heated through, turn it down to low. It will also depend on your crockpot--I've made this recipe in several of them, and they all heat just a little bit differently.

In the 30 minutes before serving, add large and mini marshmallows to the crockpot. They'll get all melty and yummy! Use a ladle to serve hot chocolate into mugs, then top with all of your favorite hot chocolate toppings.
