So often Valentine’s Day is all about the red and pink punch. But when it comes to wintertime, I’d rather be holding a mug of hot cocoa than a cold glass of punch. This Valentine’s Day, choose this white hot chocolate drink for a perfectly comfortable snack.

☕️ How do you make white hot chocolate?

Ingredients Needed:

• Powdered sugar: You can use granulated sugar instead of powdered, just stir well until melted. You can also put granulated sugar in a food processor to make the granules finer.
• Powdered milk: If you are gluten free, make sure to check this on the package. Powdered milk can contain wheat so be sure to choose one that says gluten free.
• Powdered creamer: Use a flavored creamer to change the flavor of your hot chocolate or simply use unflavored creamer.
• White chocolate chips: Using a high quality white chocolate chip is important. Ghirardelli’s is our favorite since it melts smoothly and evenly.
• Marshmallows: It’s just not hot chocolate without marshmallows, right?

In a mixing bowl, add powdered sugar, powdered milk, creamer and one cup of white chocolate chips. Whisk well to combine.

Store the mix in an airtight container. This will keep several months at room temperature. You can also store it in the freezer to keep it for longer.

When you are ready to make the drink, add ⅓ cup of cocoa mix to a mug, then pour in 8 ounces of hot milk or water. We prefer milk for more flavor and creaminess, but you can use water if you’d like.
