Whipped Hot Chocolate
Whipped hot chocolate is a rich, creamy twist on classic cocoa, topped with a fluffy chocolate whipped cream and served over warm or cold milk. It’s an easy, café-style treat made with simple ingredients and ready in minutes.
Equipment
- Mixing bowl Chilled for best results

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup hot chocolate mix
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (very cold)
- 1 cup milk (regular or chocolate)
Instructions
- Place a large bowl and mixer beaters in the freezer for about 15 minutes until well chilled.
- Add the cold whipping cream, hot chocolate mix, and powdered sugar to the chilled bowl.
- Beat on low speed for 30 seconds, then increase to medium-high speed.
- Continue whipping until soft, fluffy peaks form and the mixture holds its shape.
- Heat the milk until warm, or keep it cold if making an iced version.
- Pour the milk evenly into two glasses.
- Spoon or pipe the whipped chocolate topping over the milk.

Notes
Use very cold cream, bowl, and beaters for best results. Stop whipping as soon as soft peaks form to avoid over-whipping. Adjust sweetness before fully whipping and serve immediately for the best texture.
