Slow Cooker Hot Chocolate
Every year one of my friends hosts a kid’s Christmas PJs party. All the kids wear their Christmas jammies and do a gift exchange, it is a blast and my boys look forward to it every year.
How Do You Keep Hot Chocolate Warm for a Party?
This year she set up a hot chocolate bar and served up slow cooker hot chocolate. I thought it was a great idea to share here on the blog because it worked so well for the party. The Crock-Pot Hot Chocolate is perfect for parties because it stays warm the entire time!
How to Make Hot Chocolate in a Slow Cooker
This recipe is so easy! It comes out thick and rich, and oh-so-much better than the instant hot chocolate. It’s not just for parties too, it’s also perfect for cold blustery winter weekends! My family can go through a full batch in an afternoon at home easily!
You’ll notice I use only half a can of the condensed milk, most recipes I see for Crock Pot Hot Chocolate use a full can and I have tried that but it comes out too sweet for my taste. I think the hot chocolate with half a can of the condensed milk and the semi-sweet chocolate chips come out with just the right balance! (If you’re worried about wasting the condensed milk, just make a batch of these Coconut Macaroons to go along with it, it also uses a partial can of condensed milk!)

How to Serve Slow Cooker Hot Chocolate
I serve my hot chocolate with marshmallows of course, but you can also get creative and add in peppermint sticks, whipped cream and sprinkles, coconut…the possibilities are endless! You can also experiment with using different types of chocolate chips, too. It’s a very easy recipe to have fun with!
