Kahlua Hot Chocolate
I love Kahlua. With it being one of my favorite alcohols to add to drinks, I am always trying to think of exciting ways to use it! One of my favorites is to make Kahlua hot chocolate with it. This tasty drink has flavors that work so well in a hot chocolate and it tastes amazing! Trust me, you will love it!
Now this recipe makes enough for one serving but you can always double or even triple it if you are making it for more people, they are sure to love it too! If you are making for an even bigger group, you could use my slow cooker hot chocolate recipe and just add Bailey’s to taste right before serving.

Of course! Directly substitute in white chocolate for the regular chocolate.
