Ingredients
Directions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 tablespoon sugar. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, then mix in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups whole milk, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 4 ounces white chocolate chips. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the white chocolate is melted and the mixture begins to simmer. Do not let it boil or burn.
- Pour the hot chocolate into mugs. Top with the whipped cream and/or ghost marshmallows.
- Use a black edible marker to draw little faces on mini marshmallows, then drop them into the hot chocolate just before serving.
