Ingredients

  • 200g Wickedly Welsh Chocolate (milk or dark, depending on your preference)

  • 750ml whole milk

  • 250ml double cream

  • 2 tbsp caster sugar (optional, depending on the sweetness of your chocolate)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of sea salt

Optional Toppings

  • Whipped cream

  • Mini marshmallows

  • Chocolate shavings

  • Grated nutmeg or cinnamon

Method

  1. Prepare the chocolate: roughly chop the your choice of Wickedly Welsh Chocolate into small pieces. This will help it to melt evenly.

  2. Combine the ingredients: add your milk, double cream, caster sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt to your slow cooker and gently stir gently to combine.

  3. Add the chocolate: stir in the chopped chocolate, ensuring it’s evenly distributed in the liquid.

  4. Cook slowly: set your slow cooker to low and cook for 2 hours. Stir the mixture every 30 minutes or so, to ensure the chocolate melts evenly and doesn’t stick to the sides.

  5. Check and serve: after 2 hours, check the consistency and sweetness of the hot chocolate. If it’s too thick, stir in a splash of milk and adjust sweetness if needed. Ladle the hot chocolate into mugs and add your favourite toppings.

Top Tip: you can keep your slow cooker on low throughout the day to keep your unlimited hot chocolate going for that little bit longer. Just give it a stir before servng!
