S’mores Whipped Hot Cocoa: A Comforting Twist on a Classic

Ingredients

Cocoa Base

• 2 cups whole milk
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Whipped Topping

• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons mini marshmallows, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

S’mores Mix & Garnish

• 2 tablespoons graham‑cracker crumbs (about 1/4 cup)
• 1 tablespoon semi‑sweet chocolate chips, melted for drizzling
• Extra mini marshmallows for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Creating the Marshmallow‑Infused Whip

1. Chill the Bowl. Place a medium mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 5 minutes. A cold environment helps the cream reach stiff peaks faster.
2. Combine Cream and Sweeteners. Pour 1/2 cup heavy cream into the chilled bowl, add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, and whisk on medium‑high speed until soft peaks form—about 2 minutes.
3. Fold in Marshmallows. Gently fold the 2 tablespoons finely chopped mini marshmallows into the whipped cream. The marshmallows melt slightly, giving the whip a sweet, airy texture reminiscent of toasted campfire treats.
