The BEST Crock Pot Hot Chocolate
It is so good that I would serve it in my coffee shop if I owned a coffee shop… which truth be told would be a really odd thing for me to own since I don’t like coffee BUT if I did find myself the owner of a coffee shop, that would be alright as long as I could serve this too because this is all I would want to drink anyhow.
Psst looking for our Crock Star Mugs? You can find them in our store :).
Now how about a recipe? Like most really great recipes, this one only calls for a handful of ingredients and yet it is OH-SO good!!

Notes onCrock Pot Hot Chocolate
- Looking for our Crock Star Mugs? You can find them in our store.
- Any crock pot will cook this recipe up nicely. I personally prefer myautomatic stirring slow cooker. It automatically stirs every two hours but for this recipe I just hit the manual button when I walk by it to stir things up nicely without ever having to open the lid!
- Recipe adapted fromGooseberry Patch’s Slow Cooker Fall Favorites.
- As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and shouldalways be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
