Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 ounces Vodka
- 1 ounce Chocolate liqueur
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 0.25 cup Whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings
- 2 tablespoons Crushed graham crackers (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, and chocolate chips over medium heat. Stir continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the hot chocolate cool slightly while preparing the glass.
If desired, rim a martini glass with crushed graham crackers. To do this, dip the rim of the glass into a shallow dish of water or chocolate liqueur, then press it into the crushed graham crackers.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Add the slightly cooled hot chocolate, vodka, and chocolate liqueur to the shaker.
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and frothy.
Strain the cocktail into the prepared martini glass.
Top with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, decadent flavor of this Hot Chocolate Martini!
