Cozy up with a refreshing mint white chocolate beverage.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened baking cocoa
  • 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 6 cups milk
  • 3 cups white vanilla baking chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • Candy cane or crushed hard peppermint candy, if desired
Instructions:
  • In a chilled bowl, whip together heavy cream, powdered sugar, cocoa, and 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract using an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, gently warm the milk over medium-low heat until it simmers - be careful not to let it boil. Lower the heat, then add the baking chips and whisk continuously until completely melted and silky. Finally, mix in 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract.
  • Pour the hot chocolate into cups or mugs, then add a dollop of whipped cream on top. Finish by garnishing with a candy cane for stirring or a sprinkle of crushed candies.
