Vanilla Chai Hot Chocolate is the coziest fall and winter treat! Easy, homemade hot chocolate infused with all the flavors of a vanilla chai latte. Perfect for sipping on a chilly night.
2ouncesbittersweet or semisweet chocolate barfinely chopped
2teaspoonsvanilla extract
Instructions
Over high heat, bring water to boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and add chai tea bags. Cover with a lid and let sit for 15 minutes.
Pour the milk into the saucepan with the tea and mix together. Simmer over medium-low heat (do not boil) for about 7-10 minutes until milk is heated through to a desirable temperature. (During this step, you can leave the tea bags in the milk for a deeper chai flavor, but use caution as the strings on the tea bags may hang close to the flame/burner.)
Discard the tea bags, and add cocoa powder, sugar, chocolate, and vanilla. Whisk well to combine.
Remove from heat and serve warm topped with marshmallows or whipped cream!
