Crock Pot Skinny Hot Chocolate Recipe
This Skinny Crock Pot Hot Chocolate Recipe is perfect for any winter event, Christmas party, or cozy snow day! Made with a few lower-calorie swaps, this hot cocoa still tastes rich and creamy, but with slightly fewer calories.
Ingredients
- 1 14 ounces can skim sweetened condensed milk
- 6 cups skim milk, 2% milk, or milk substitute
- 1 cup half and half
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- toppings: marshmallows, low fat whipped cream, sprinkles
Instructions
- Add the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, milk, half and half, and vanilla extract to a Crock Pot. Whisk all of the ingredients together. Turn on high.
- Cook on high for 1-2 hours until the chocolate is melted and the ingredients are combined. Occasionally whisk the cocoa to help it melt.
- Serve with marshmallows, whipped cream, and sprinkles.
- If you're serving this at a party, switch your slow cooker to the WARM setting once the hot chocolate is heated through. Stir occasionally to keep it smooth and creamy.
Notes
Storage & Leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. You can reheat individual servings in the microwave or in a saucepan over low heat. Stir it well before reheating.
Freezing
I would not try to freeze this.
