Ingredients
Scale
Oreo Hot Chocolate Base
- 3 Oreo cookies, cream filling removed and reserved
- â…” cup milk
- 1 ½ tablespoons granulated sugar
Toppings
- Whipped cream (for garnish, optional)
- Extra Oreo crumbles (for garnish)
Instructions
- Remove Oreo Cream Filling: Carefully twist open the 3 Oreo cookies to remove the cream filling. Set this filling aside for later use to enrich the hot chocolate.
- Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan over low to medium heat, add the Oreo cookies without the cream filling, milk, and granulated sugar. Begin whisking occasionally to help the cookies start dissolving and to prevent the mixture from burning.
- Heat and Thicken: Continue whisking the mixture as it heats. Initially, it will stay mostly liquid, but after several minutes, it will thicken suddenly to create a creamy, smooth consistency.
- Add Oreo Cream Filling: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the reserved Oreo cream filling. Mix until the filling is fully incorporated, making the hot chocolate richer and smoother.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the hot chocolate into mugs. Top with whipped cream if desired, and sprinkle extra Oreo crumbles on top for texture and decoration. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your homemade Oreo Hot Chocolate.
Notes
- Removing the Oreo cream carefully helps in adding extra smoothness to the hot chocolate, but you can also use whole crushed Oreos for a more textured drink.
- Use full-fat milk for a creamier texture, or substitute with any milk alternative if preferred.
- Adjust the sugar quantity based on your desired sweetness level.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the best flavor and texture.
