Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 0.25 cups Pumpkin puree
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 optional, for topping Whipped cream
- 1 optional, for garnish Ground cinnamon
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, pumpkin puree, cocoa powder, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice.
Set the heat to medium and whisk continuously to ensure the cocoa powder and pumpkin puree are fully dissolved.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, but do not let it boil, as this could scorch the milk.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the vanilla extract. Taste the drink and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more sugar.
Once heated through, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Divide the drink evenly between two mugs.
Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, if desired, for an extra festive touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Pumpkin Pie Hot Chocolate!
