Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 drops red food coloring
  • Whipped cream optional, for garnish
  • Sprinkles optional, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Heat the Milk: In a medium saucepan, combine the evaporated milk and whole milk. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it just begins to simmer. Avoid letting it boil.
  2. Melt the White Chocolate: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the white chocolate chips until fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Food Coloring: Add the red food coloring one drop at a time, stirring well after each drop, until the desired pink hue is achieved.
  4. Serve & Garnish: Pour the pink hot chocolate into mugs. Top with whipped cream and sprinkles for a festive touch, if desired.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, use almond milk or oat milk and dairy-free white chocolate chips.
  • Adjust the pink color to your preference by varying the amount of food coloring.
  • To make it less sweet, reduce the amount of white chocolate or add a pinch of salt.
