Ingredients

• 6 cups (1440ml) whole milk (1% or 2% are OK)
• 2 cups (480ml) heavy cream
• 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
• 8 ounces (226g) semi-sweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
• 1/4 cup (21g) unsweetened natural or dutch-process cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• toppings: marshmallows, chocolate candies, candy canes, chocolate syrup, salted caramel, etc

Directions

• Place all of the ingredients into a large slow cooker. (Heres one I own and love!) Vigorously whisk to get the cocoa powder as mixed in as possible-- you dont want it all floating on the top. Keep whisking for a minute or 2 until its all combined. Cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 hours. Make sure you whisk it every 45 minutes - 1 hour to make sure the chocolate isnt burning on the bottom. Serve warm with marshmallows or other optional toppings. Store leftovers in the refrigerator and warm up on the stove or in the microwave.
