Red Velvet Hot Chocolate Recipe

 

With Valentine's day steadily creeping up on us I thought it would be fun to make a little festive hot chocolate treat. Behold darlings: pink hot chocolate and red velvet hot chocolate! Share one of these with your bestie or your Mr. Tis' the season for chocolate, and pink, and appreciating the loved one's in your life.

 

 

Red Velvet Hot Chocolate, makes 2 servings.

 

Needed: 4-5 cups milk, 1 cup dark chocolate chips, 2-3 drops red food coloring.

 

Pink Hot Chocolate, makes 2 servings.

 

Needed: 4-5 cups milk, 1 cup white chocolate chips, and 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup.

 

For each of these beverages the method is the same: in a small pot heat the milk over medium heat. Add the chocolate chips and continue to stir constantly as they melt and incorporate into the milk. Add the syrup or dye. Serve with whip cream and cozy up with someone. :) Enjoy! xo. emma and elsie
