Cook your hot chocolate over a medium heat and keep stirring slowly with the whisk for around 3-4 minutes.
Once the hot chocolate is warmed through (not boiling) pour it into your favorite mugs.
You can drink it as it is and enjoy, or if you’re like me add in a few mini marshmallows and top with whipped cream and chocolate syrup too.
