Practice Cake and Hot Chocolate

We woke up to frozen rain, closed schools and icy roads this morning. The funny things about it is it was actually warmer today than it has been in a while! Despite that little fact it is the perfect day for hot chocolate.

I found this hot chocolate recipe on Pinterest a while back and I have made it at least once a week ever since. It is the most creamy, delicious hot chocolate I have ever had!

My favorite thing about this recipe is it is so easy. Just throw it all in the crock pot, give it a little stir and walk away. Mmm I love this stuff!

Here's the recipe:

6 cups Milk
1 1/2 cups Heavy Cream
1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 cups Chocolate Chips

Combine all ingredients in the crock pot. Cook on High for 2 hours or until it is all melty and hot. Give it a good whisk to combine all ingredients.

You can also speed up the process by heating it in a pot on the stove or even the microwave.

I like to serve it with either mini marshmallows or homemade whipped cream.


I have had a lot of inquiries for cakes recently. Cakes are not my strong suit so I have been practicing here and there. I made this one yesterday. The cake is chocolate with cream cheese frosting. Not to toot my own horn but it was yuuummy!

Have a great day!
