Instruction

  • Heat one cup of milk in a microwave safe container for one minute.

  • Whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the warm milk and stir until the ingredients are smooth and well combined.
  • Add the cocoa mixture to the milk and cream and stir to combine.
  • Place the lid on the Crock Pot and set to cook on low for four hours or high for three hours.
  • When ready to serve, remove the lid from the slow cooker and add the food coloring. This step is optional. It adds the purple tint to the hot chocolate for Halloween.
