I can’t believe how quickly Halloween is approaching.  It seemed like just last week it was 90 degrees and super hot.  Now all of a sudden fall weather is taking over and Halloween is almost here.   It’s crazy to say but Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays.

I love getting dressed up at school and seeing the reactions on the kids faces to my costumes.   I have 3 or 4 that I rotate throughout the years but the kids still get a kick out of them.  I also enjoy passing out candy at our house.   Where we used to live we would only get a handful of trick-or-treaters and some years we didn’t have anyone!   Now we get 200-300 kids and I love it.

Each year I have a Halloween reward party for the kids at school.  It’s one of their favorite parties because I make all of the treats in a Halloween theme.  I’ve made brain cupcakes, Monster Bundt Cakes, and candy corn cupcakes.   Every year it’s something different.

This year I’m making this Halloween Hot Chocolate for them.  I love it because it’s super easy to make but I know the kids will think it’s super fun.   It’s actually a white hot chocolate that is dyed with food coloring.  I used orange, purple, and green coloring but you can use any color you would like.

The Hot Chocolate is super easy to make with only a handful of ingredients.  It’s divided into bowls and dyed.   Then it’s placed in mugs, topped with whipped cream, then toppings are put on.  I used Halloween colored sprinkles, marshmallows colored like eye balls, and marshmallows decorated like ghosts.   It took me less then 15 minutes to make 8 mugs of Halloween Hot Chocolate.

So whether you are having a Halloween party or just want to treat your child to something fun, give this easy Halloween Hot Chocolate a try!

Ingredients

• 12 oz. white chocolate chips or disks

• Whipped Cream
• Halloween Sprinkles
• mini marshmallows
• Edible marker

Instructions

• Place the white chocolate in a large bowl and set aside.
• Heat the milk in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a simmer but do not boil!
• While the milk is heating up use an edible black marker to put dots on mini marshmallows to make eyeballs. Then use it to make 2 eyes and mouth on mini marshmallows to make mini ghosts. If you don't have an edible marker you can use melted chocolate instead.
• Quickly pour the warm milk over top of the white chocolate and whisk until combined. Mix in the vanilla.
• Divide the hot chocolate into 3 bowls. Dye one orange, one green, and one purple. Pour into mugs.
