Instructions
Step 1
Place the candy canes (I like to break them up) and water in a small pot. You may want to use a pot big enough to eventually fit the other ingredients. Turn the stove on medium-high and stir consistently until the candy canes melt and the mixture becomes syrupy.
Step 2
Add the other ingredients: Add the milk, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, sweetener, and a pinch of salt over medium heat.
Step 3
Heat and Stir: Continue to heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the hot chocolate is steaming hot. Do not let it boil.
Step 4
Serve: Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and let it cool slightly before enjoying. Top with whipped cream, marshmallows, and crushed candy canes.
