Peppermint White Hot Chocolate

We have all read about the crazy red cup issue this past week. I can tell you that as much as I am a believer in keeping the “Christ” in Christmas, a red cup from an extremely rich company is not going to deter me from grabbing a cup of some good coffee or hot chocolate during the winter months. However the cost may.

This morning, my daughter woke and thought that we HAD to take a trip to Starbucks to get a cup of hot chocolate.  I am not sure how many times this past week she has insisted that we needed to make the trip. The girl loves her Starbucks. As much as I attempt to teach the value of money, these kids still just can’t understand that running to the coffee shop can be a budget buster for our family.

I whipped up a quick batch of this yummy Peppermint White Hot Chocolate for her while she was showering. Even though it was not her beloved Starbucks, it was enough to keep her from begging to make the trip, ha ha.  She even agreed that making it at home was better. I am super excited that I decided to make it. Normally during the holidays, I make a big batch of our Slow Cooker Hot Chocolate to serve our party guests. This year, I will be making a couple of batches of this yumminess.

    Thank you for sharing this recipe! I made this tonight for my family, and it was a hit. I was a little nervous that this was going to be very sweet, as white chocolate chips are sooo sweet, but I was thrilled with the outcome. I made the recipe “as-is”, and the sweetness factor was subtle and perfect. It was very creamy (I used whole milk) and the peppermint flavor was subtle as well.

  2. I Can’t wait to make this up to be ready for when all the teenagers get home! What a treat:) Thank you for sharing the recipe.

  3. Oh my! Your peppermint hot chocolate looks DIVINE! Thank you so much for sharing at The Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop! PINNING!!!

  4. Visiting you from the “Inspire Me Monday” link up. Your pictures are beautiful. Definitely makes me want to try this recipe. Looks so yummy.

  5. This looks like the ultimate treat, I can’t wait to make it. Thanks for sharing (and I think SB started the cup color talk as a p.r. scam. Look how their name is all over the internet. Very savvy of them – free advertising)
