Rich and creamy crockpot hot chocolate...so easy to make, and perfect for cozy fall and winter days, holiday parties, and guests.

Ingredients

6 cups whole milk, OR 3 cups whole milk and 3 cups half and half
2 cans evaporated milk , (2-12 oz. cans)
2 cups heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

Mix all the ingredients together in a 6 quart crockpot. Cook on low for 2-3 hours, stirring often the first hour, to make sure the chocolate incorporates and doesn't burn on the bottom. You can leave it on warm once it's heated through, and if it's too hot to serve on low.
In the 30 minutes before serving, add large and mini marshmallows to the crockpot. They'll get all melty and yummy! Use a ladle to serve hot chocolate into mugs, then top with all of your favorite hot chocolate toppings.

Notes

If you don't have a crockpot, you can still make this! You can use this recipe on your stove too!! Place all the ingredients on a large stock pot. Keep on low, stirring often until all the chocolate is melted. Simmer with lid on, stirring occasionally.

*You can use 6 cups whole milk, or make it even richer by using 3 cups whole milk and 3 cups half and half. I've done it both ways, and both are yummy! I usually use half and half.
