What is white hot chocolate made of?
White hot chocolate is so easy to make! My version is made from milk, white chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. The biggest difference between versions is whether people use milk, half-and-half, or heavy whipping cream as the liquid. I prefer milk because I think the white chocolate melted down thickens the drink up enough but you can really use any of those options or a mix of them.

White chocolate contains all of the same ingredients except for cocoa so while it is similar in texture, it tastes nothing like chocolate.
