Pumpkin Spice White Hot Cocoa
This white chocolate + pumpkin spice hot cocoa is shockingly so insanely good!
This is an “adult” hot chocolate to warm you up in the cooler months. The pumpkin and white chocolate pair perfectly together.
It’s so easy to make!!
📖Because of the use of Fairlife milk, each serving provides 13 grams of protein, vitamin D, calcium, B12 and more micronutrients. You’ll also be boosting your immune system since pumpkin is rich in beta-carotene.
INGREDIENTS (4 servings)
4 cups non-fat Fairlife milk, or preferred milk
1/2 cup marshmallow cream
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Whipped Cream, optional
1/2 cup 100% pure pumpkin puree
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (plus more for topping)
Of course, an amazing cup of cocoa is not complete without the toppings! I love to add whipped cream, mini marshmallows and garnish with some white chocolate chips.
Directions
1. Pour milk into a pot over medium heat. Heat until warm, not boiling.
2. Add the marshmallow cream and whisk occasionally, until the cream has melted.
3. After about 5 minutes, incorporate the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice and white chocolate chips. Stir or whisk frequently to prevent burning.
4. Once the white chocolate has melted, taste test. If it’s not hot enough, turn to low and stir occasionally.
5. Pour into four glasses, top with whipped cream, additional pumpkin pie spice and mini marshmallows. Enjoy!
