Ingredients
- 3 1/2 cups milk
- 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- pinch salt
- 1-2 teaspoons red food coloring
Instructions
- Add the milk and cream cheese to a blender and blend until smooth. Or if you have a stick blender, you can blend them together in a medium saucepan.
- Pour the milk mixture into a medium saucepan, if not already, and add the chocolate, vanilla, brown sugar, and salt. Warm over medium-low heat, whisking occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Whisk in the red food coloring, adding more until you get the color you like.
Notes
This hot chocolate can be cooled and stored in the refrigerator for several days. Reheat to serve.
