White Hot Chocolate

White Hot Chocolate

  • 2 ounces white chocolate, chopped

  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk

  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • nutmeg, for grating

  • candy canes and/or marshmallows, for garnish

In a saucepan, combine the white chocolate, milk, sugar, vanilla and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium low heat. You may notice that the cocoa butter in the white chocolate, which gives it a yellow-ish hue, may rise to the top; don't let that bother you as it will taste delicious.

When the mixture is gently bubbling and the chocolate is melted and smooth, pour into serving mugs and garnish with nutmeg, and anything else you'd like to top it with.

Yields about 4 servings.
