Minty Hot Chocolate. Something to warm your fingers and toes, a lovely hot mug of minty hot chocolate made with real chocolate, milk and crushed candy canes. Watch the video here

Ingredients

  • 2-3 peppermint flavoured candy canes
  • 500ml milk
  • 80g good quality dark chocolate, grated
  • Marshmallows and extra candy canes to serve

Instructions

  1. Place 2 or 3 candy canes in a freezer bag, close the bag then use a rolling pin or heavy pot or pan to break and crush the candy canes.
  2. Place milk in a saucepan and heat just until it starts to boil around the edges. Remove from heat.
  3. Divide grated chocolate between 2 mugs and add 1 generous tbsp of the crushed candy canes to each. Fill mugs with hot milk to about halfway then stir with a spoon until chocolate has melted. Fill each mug almost to the top with remaining hot milk, give a quick stir, then top with marshmallows. Sprinkle with leftover crushed candy cane (if you have leftover), and finally, add a whole candy cane to each mug.
  4. Serve immediately.
  5. Depending on the size of your candy canes, 1 candy cane equals roughly 1 tbsp crushed candy cane. Easily double or triple the recipe to serve more.
