Ingredients

For the hot chocolate

  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup 60% dark chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

To garnish

  • whipped cream to taste
  • 2 tablespoon melted peanut butter

Instructions

  • Put the milk, chocolate morsels and peanut butter in the Vitamix, place the top on the blender. Start on low and then increase to highest setting and run blender for 5 minutes. You can also use the soup setting.
  • Pour into mugs, top with whipped cream and drizzle with peanut butter.
  • You can also make this without a blender on the stovetop.
  • No blender? Place the milk, chocolate, and peanut butter in a small saucepan over low to medium heat, whisking constantly so the peanut butter does not burn on the bottom of the pan.
  • Enjoy!
