This green white hot chocolate is so perfect for any occasion. It’s basically equal parts white chocolate and cream boiled together on the stove top then colored with green food coloring. I added some crushed pistachios for an enhanced mouldy vibe. The mushrooms were added as a prop to make it look like a desolate pond. This white hot chocolate is literally so perfect for Halloween because it is so haunted-looking.
White chocolate is very creamy, hence the reason for choosing this chocolate flavor. You can use white chocolate chips or a white chocolate bar. If you choose the latter, the chocolate bar has to be chopped so it can melt quickly. Any type of cream would work for this recipe. However, you can also use milk. The food coloring is added last, after the heat is turned off. Stir the white hot chocolate until it is one colour and then serve immediely for best results. I used crushed pistachios to coat the surface of the hot chocolate. If you like fancy hot chocolate have a look at my peppermint hot cocoa, which uses actual peppermint candy.
