Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups milk
  2. 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  3. 1/4 cup peppermint schnapps
  4. Whipped cream for topping
  5. Crushed peppermint for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, pour in 2 cups of milk and place it over medium heat. Allow the milk to warm gently, stirring occasionally to prevent it from scorching on the bottom.
  2. Once the milk is warm but not boiling, add 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips to the saucepan. Continue to stir the mixture until the chocolate chips have completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. After the white chocolate has melted, reduce the heat to low and stir in 1/4 cup of peppermint schnapps. Mix well to combine the flavors, allowing the cocoa to heat through without boiling.
  4. Once the cocoa is heated to your desired temperature, remove the saucepan from the heat. Carefully pour the boozy white chocolate mint cocoa into two mugs.
  5. Top each mug with a generous dollop of whipped cream, allowing it to create a fluffy layer on top of the cocoa.
  6. For an added festive touch, sprinkle crushed peppermint over the whipped cream as a garnish. This will enhance both the flavor and presentation of your drink.
  7. Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious Boozy White Chocolate Mint Cocoa!

Tips

  1. Temperature is Key: Warm the milk gently to prevent scorching and ensure a smooth, creamy texture. Never let the mixture boil, as this can cause the milk to separate.
  2. Chocolate Melting Technique: Stir the white chocolate chips continuously while melting to create a uniform, silky consistency.
  3. Schnapps Selection: Use a high-quality peppermint schnapps for the best flavor. The better the liqueur, the more refined your cocoa will taste.
  4. Whipped Cream Hack: For extra indulgence, use freshly whipped cream instead of store-bought. It makes a significant difference in taste and texture.
  5. Garnish Creatively: Crush peppermint candies just before serving to maintain their vibrant color and crisp texture.
  6. Serving Suggestion: Serve immediately while hot to enjoy the full depth of flavors and the luxurious warmth of the drink.
