Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy, for serving)
Instructions
- Combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder in a medium bowl.
- Use an electric hand mixer or a whisk to beat the mixture until stiff peaks form. This creates the fluffy chocolate topping.
- Warm your milk in a saucepan or microwave until hot, but not boiling.
- Pour the warm milk into two mugs.
- Spoon a generous amount of the whipped chocolate topping over the hot milk in each mug.
- Serve immediately for a cozy night in.
Notes
- For an iced version, use cold chocolate milk instead of warm milk.
- If you do not have an electric mixer, you can whisk vigorously by hand, but this will take longer to achieve the fluffy texture.
- Top with mini marshmallows or a dusting of extra cocoa powder for presentation.
