Ingredients

Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate

Peanut Butter Whipped Cream (optional)

Directions

Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate

  • Warm the milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat when it just starts to bubble around the edges. Don’t bring to a full boil.
  • Off heat, add the chopped chocolate. Whisk until fully melted and smooth.
  • Pour into mugs and top with peanut butter whipped cream if desired.

Peanut Butter Whipped Cream (optional)

  • Whisk the peanut butter in a mixing bowl on its own for a few seconds to loosen it up slightly.
  • Add the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
  • Beat on medium-high with a hand or stand mixer for about 2 minutes, until soft-to-medium peaks form. Watch it near the end as overbeating turns it grainy.
