Description

I found this one in the local paper last year, lost it for awhile, and i'm now posting it for safekeeping. This is a little different from the other versions posted here — no honey, no instant hot cocoa mix, and the chocolate flavor is doubled with cocoa powder and dark chocolate chips. If you are one for sweets with a spicy kick, you can use "the heat is on" flavor from peanut butter and co in place of the regular peanut butter.

Ingredients

  • Whole Milk
  • Creamy Peanut Butter
  • Sugar
  • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • Dark Chocolate Chips
  • Mini Marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Combine milk, peanut butter, sugar and cocoa powder in the blender
  2. Puree until very smooth, then transfer to a medium saucepan
  3. Bring to a simmer over medium heat
  4. Add the chocolate chips and continue heating, stirring constantly, until chips are melted and mixture is smooth
  5. Ladle into mugs
  6. Garnish with marshmallows or chopped candies, if desired
