Calories: 516kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cups whole milk
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips divided
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 crushed graham crackers for rim
- 1 full graham cracker
- 1 cup mini marshmallows for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Graham Cracker Rim: Place chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 10-second increments, stirring after each one, until the chocolate is completely melted. Use a butter knife to spread the melted chocolate around the rims of 2 to 3 glasses or mugs. Sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the chocolate before it firms up. Set the mugs aside.
- Toast the Marshmallows: Place marshmallows on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Broil for 1 to 3 minutes, watching them closely, until the marshmallows are toasted to your preference.
- Make the Hot Chocolate: Pour the milk into a saucepan and warm over medium heat. Once the milk is warm, add cocoa powder, remaining chocolate chips, and sugar. Whisk until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the hot chocolate is smooth and heated to your preferred temperature.
- Assemble: Pour the hot chocolate into the prepared mugs. Top each mug with roasted marshmallows and a quarter of a graham cracker. Serve immediately while the hot chocolate is warm and the marshmallows are soft and slightly crisp around the edges.
Notes
- Store leftovers, without the graham cracker or marshmallows, in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. When reheating, be sure to roast some more marshmallows and add another graham cracker quarter to the top.
- Watch the broiler closely. Marshmallows can brown very quickly, so don’t walk away while they’re under the broiler.
- Work quickly with the mug rims. Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers onto the melted chocolate while it’s still soft so they will stick.
- Use parchment paper. This keeps the marshmallows from sticking directly to the baking sheet and makes cleanup much easier.
