Ingredients

  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag white chocolate chips
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • Red food coloring
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Heart-shaped sprinkles, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Melt the Chocolate: In a medium saucepan, add the sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate chips. Warm over medium-low heat, stirring continuously. The chocolate chips should gradually melt into the condensed milk, creating a smooth, creamy base. Be patient to avoid scorching the chocolate.
  2. Incorporate the Milk: Once the chocolate is fully melted, slowly pour in the whole milk, stirring with a whisk to blend everything together. Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth, ensuring that no lumps of chocolate remain.
  3. Heat the Mixture: Increase the heat to medium, stirring regularly, until the hot chocolate mixture becomes warm and steamy. Be careful not to let it come to a boil, as this can affect the creamy texture.
  4. Color the Hot Chocolate: Once the hot chocolate is steaming, remove the saucepan from the heat. Add a few drops of red food coloring to the mixture. Stir well after each addition, adjusting the amount of food coloring until the hot chocolate reaches the perfect shade of pink that you desire.
  5. Serve and Garnish: Pour the pink hot chocolate into mugs or heat-safe mason jars. For an extra touch of indulgence, top each serving with a generous swirl of whipped cream. Finish with a sprinkle of heart-shaped sprinkles for a festive, fun garnish.
  6. Enjoy: Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy the silky-smooth, delightful sweetness of this charming treat. It’s perfect for sipping with friends or loved ones.

This pink hot chocolate not only tastes incredible but also adds a touch of whimsy to any occasion. The combination of rich white chocolate, creamy milk, and festive decorations makes it an ideal drink to share on special days!
