SLOW COOKER SALTED CARAMEL HOT CHOCOLATE
From: Tiffany @ www.lecremedelacrumb.com/slow-cooker-salted-caramel-hot-chocolate
Have you tried making real hot chocolate in your slow cooker?? “Real” meaning made from actual chocolate instead of powder. Don’t get me wrong, I use powdered hot cocoa like it’s going out of style. But if you haven’t tried making real-from-actual-chocolate hot chocolate, you need to. Use your crock pot for no-fuss amazing hot chocolate. You just dump everything in there, let it do its cooking thing, and come back a couple of hours later for the best salted caramel hot chocolate of your life. Not into salted caramel? No worries, you can leave out the salt and enjoy creamy plain-caramel hot chocolate. Bonus: serve it straight from the slow cooker to keep it nice and hotttt.
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 2 hrs
Total time: 2 hrs, 5 min
Serves: 8
INGREDIENTS
2 cups semi sweet OR milk chocolate chips (milk chocolate chips will yield a much richer flavor - I like to use a combination of both!)
½ cup caramels, unwrapped
4 cups milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon fine sea salt (for regular non-salted caramel hot chocolate, leave this out)
optional: whipping cream, caramel sauce (like caramel ice cream topping)
INSTRUCTIONS
Add chocolate chips, caramels, milk, heavy cream, and vanilla to the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 2 hours.
Stir the hot chocolate.
If the chocolate chips or caramels are not completely melted, cover and allow to cook for 20-30 minutes longer.
When ready to serve, stir in the sea salt.
Serve hot with whipped cream and additional caramel sauce if desired.
