Amarula-Spiked White Hot Chocolate

This Amarula-spiked white hot chocolate is guaranteed to warm you up from the inside out! Its sweet, creamy deliciousness will kick the cold away and warm even the coldest night.

TOTAL TIME 20 minutes | SERVINGS 6-8  

INGREDIENTS

750ml (3 cups) full-cream milk
3 cinnamon quills
10ml (2 tsp) vanilla essence
tiny pinch salt
185g condensed milk
2 x 80g slabs white chocolate, finely chopped
Amarula, to taste
Mini pink and white marshmallows, to serve

METHOD

PLACE the milk, cinnamon quills, vanilla essence and salt in a medium pot and simmer over medium heat (keep a close eye on the stove, as milk has a tendency to boil over).

REMOVE from heat and add the condensed milk and finely chopped chocolate. Set aside to stand, whisking every few minutes until the chocolate has melted.

POUR into mugs to serve, add a splash of Amarula and top with mini marshmallows. Use a blowtorch to toast the marshmallows, if desired.

The kiddies don’t have to miss out either. To make this a non-alcoholic treat, simply do not add the Amarula. Serve with an extra marshmallow or two, just for fun.
