Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- Whipped cream, for topping
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan, whisk together pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and milk until fully blended and smooth.
- Heat Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent burning or sticking to the pan.
- Add White Chocolate: Stir in the white chocolate chips continuously until they are completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Remove the saucepan from heat and pour the hot chocolate into cups or mugs.
- Garnish: Top each cup with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of additional pumpkin pie spice for extra flavor and festive presentation.
Notes
- Use full-fat milk for a richer texture or substitute with dairy-free milk for a lactose-free option.
- Adjust the pumpkin pie spice to taste depending on how spiced you want your drink.
- For an adult twist, add a splash of bourbon or spiced rum.
- Sweetened condensed milk adds sweetness and creaminess; you can reduce or omit based on your sweetness preference.
- Ensure constant stirring when adding white chocolate to avoid burning and to promote even melting.
