Ingredients Needed

Milk – You will find that using a whole milk will give you a lot richer hot chocolate. If you want you can use 2% milk as well for a lighter hot chocolate recipe.

Heavy Whipping Cream – This heavy whipping cream is going to add a creamy and rich flavor. It will also act as the thickening agent.

Sweetened Condensed Milk -Don’t mix this up with evaporated milk. Condensed milk is very thick and sweet.

Green Food Coloring – I love using the Wilton Gel Food Coloring. You can add as much or little as you would like for coloring the green hot chocolate.

Whipped Cream and Red Sprinkle – These are both optional if you want to add some whipped cream on top and a red heart sprinkle!
