A decadent blend of velvety chocolate, rich ice cream, and a kick of liqueur, perfect for cozy winter nights or festive gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk
  • 3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup (for drizzling)
  • 2 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 1 ounce (30 ml) Baileys Irish Cream
  • 1 ounce (30 ml) Kahlúa
  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate shavings
  • Crushed candy canes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the hot chocolate: In a saucepan, heat 1 cup (240 ml) of milk over medium heat until steaming (but not boiling). Stir in 3 tablespoons of chocolate syrup or your favorite hot chocolate mix until fully dissolved. Set aside.
  2. Prepare your mug: Drizzle the inside of a clear, heatproof mug with 1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup. Swirl it around for a fun design.
  3. Add ice cream: Scoop 2 generous scoops of vanilla ice cream into the mug to create the creamy base.
  4. Pour the hot chocolate: Slowly pour your prepared hot chocolate over the ice cream. The hot liquid will start melting the ice cream, creating a luscious, creamy mixture.
  5. Add the liqueurs: Pour 1 ounce (30 ml) of Baileys Irish Cream and 1 ounce (30 ml) of Kahlúa into the mug. Gently stir to combine the flavors.
  6. Add the whipped cream and toppings: Top your cocktail with a generous swirl of whipped cream, a sprinkle of chocolate shavings, and crushed candy canes for a festive flair.
  7. Serve immediately: Grab a spoon and enjoy the sweet, creamy, and boozy goodness!

Notes

[‘Choose high-quality ingredients for richer flavor.’, ‘Don’t overheat the hot chocolate to avoid curdling the dairy in Baileys.’, ‘Drizzle chocolate syrup inside the glass for a beautiful presentation.’, ‘Taste your hot chocolate before adding it to the mug to adjust sweetness.’, ‘Use chilled liqueurs and pour the hot chocolate over the ice cream immediately.’]
