We’re taking hot chocolate to new heights this year with decadent, delicious, and easy-to-make hot cocoa creations that range from frozen to spiked to simply snackable! Check out these five amazing recipes below, and be sure to pick up your favorite Swiss Miss® hot cocoa for all your hot chocolate needs.
HOT COCOA MUDDY BUDDIES
This super simple kid-friendly recipe features everyone’s favorite winter flavor—hot chocolate—in snack form! Made with lots of mini marshmallows, milk chocolate, and Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate with Marshmallow Hot Cocoa Mix, it’s perfect for goodie bags, on-the-go sweet treats, or party snacks.
STRAWBERRY HOT CHOCOLATE
Feeling a little fruity? Channel those childhood vibes with an adorable cup of pink—yep, pink—hot cocoa, made with Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate and sweet strawberry milk instead of plain milk. Top it all off with Reddi-wip® and pink sprinkles for an extra-adorable treat. It's perfect for Valentine’s Day or any time you want to add a little extra color to your day.
FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE
This refreshing, milkshake-like take on classic hot chocolate is served icy cold, which means it’s the perfect way to cool off on hot summer days—but it’s delicious any time of the year! Mix up your favorite vanilla ice cream, Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate, Reddi-wip, and milk, and you’re good to go. Try experimenting with ice cream and hot cocoa flavors, like Swiss Miss Peppermint, with peppermint ice cream for wintery vibes. Serve it in a frosty mug for an extra-special touch!
DARK CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT SPIKED HOT COCOA
For those Friday nights when you need a little something special, this spiked hot chocolate recipe has your back. Dark Chocolate Peppermint Hot Cocoa is the cure-all when it comes to end-of-the-week fatigue. Trust us, we’re experts. If you want to skip the alcohol, feel free to sub in a little peppermint extract for the peppermint schnapps. Either one will pair perfectly with the extra-indulgent taste of Swiss Miss Dark Chocolate Sensation and a good dollop of Reddi-wip.
S’MORES HOT CHOCOLATE
This non-dairy (yep, non-dairy) s’mores hot chocolate brings two campfire favorites together for one delicious cup of coziness: We’re talking Swiss Miss Non-Dairy Chocolate Flavored Hot Cocoa Mix with a graham cracker- and marshmallow crème-rimmed mug, plenty of Reddi-wip, and, of course, an entire s’mores to garnish. Plus, they’re social-media-worthy and that’s always a plus!
