Serving Suggestions

You of course serve this white hot chocolate with the Stormtrooper marshmallows, but you can easily serve it just by itself or with plain ones. Whipped cream is never a bad idea, or add some mini chocolate chips or a peppermint cane for the holidays.

Can you make it with other chocolate?

If white chocolate is not your thing, you can easily make this with dark or milk chocolate. The recipe stays the same, just swap the chocolate. Use a good quality chocolate for the best flavor.

Can you make it ahead of time?

This recipe makes enough for 8 drinks and the leftovers can easily be stored for the next day. Once made, take the pot off of the heat, place a lid on top and let it cool completely. You can then store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

You can reheat it in the microwave or in a double broiler on the stovetop.

FAQs

What do you put on top of hot chocolate? ›

The best hot chocolate bar toppings

Extra-small chunks Almond Butter Crunch were the most popular toppings of choice. Chocolate chips, finely chopped nuts, crushed graham crackers, and candy cane pieces, also make great options! To create the ultimate hot chocolate bar, we think, the more topping the better!

Should marshmallows melt in hot chocolate? ›

Not too soon into the hot chocolate

If you're serving the hot chocolate make sure to place the marshmallow men at the last minute. They will melt so it's best not to put them in too quickly. Mine slowly sank into the froth on top, which was actually quite fun to watch so another fun thing to look at with kids.

Do marshmallows melt or dissolve in hot chocolate? ›

When put into hot chocolate, the marshmallow doesn't really melt, it dissolves. And because sugar is water-soluble, the confection begins to collapse. But as we all know from experience, the marshmallow doesn't dissolve totally. This is due to the coagulated gelatin which is not water-soluble.

How do you doctor up hot chocolate mix? ›

An easy way to add extra flavor to any cup of cocoa—be it out of the box or homemade—is to add a touch of your favorite spices. A sprinkle of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg or even cayenne can all be welcome warming additions.

What can I use instead of marshmallows? ›

Whipped Cream: In some recipes or applications, whipped cream can be a suitable substitute for marshmallows. It adds a light and fluffy texture. Meringue: Whipped egg whites with sugar can provide a similar texture to marshmallows. They can be baked or torched for a crispy exterior.

What to pair with hot chocolate for a gift? ›

Pretzels: The salty crunch of pretzels pairs beautifully with the rich, sweet hot chocolate. Try chocolate-covered ones for an even more indulgent treat. Madeleines: These small, shell-shaped sponge cakes are light and fluffy, a perfect complement to a rich hot chocolate.
