I found this recipe on a bulletin board at my nephew's elementary school in Tecumseh, KS. It was part of a collection of recipes encouraging kids to 'get in the kitchen'. Later that night, I turned on the Christmas lights, lit the fireplace and enjoyed this decadent beverage! It tastes just like Reese's PB cups! WARNING: While this is a delicious drink, it is incredibly rich. 1/2 a cup was plenty for me personally. I doubt I'll make this again, but it was sure fun and easy to make! Enjoy! Ingredients:
1/4 cup mini chocolate chip |
2 tablespoons half-and-half |
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter |
2 cups milk (2%, whole, 1% and skim is ok, too) |
Directions:
1. Place the chocolate chips, half and half and peanut butter in a microwave-safe container.
2. Heat on high for 30 seconds.
3. Stir and repeat until the mixture is smooth. Set aside.
4. In a separate microwave-safe container, heat milk on high 1 minute. Repeat, if necessary. Milk should be warm, NOT boiling.
5. Pour chocolate mixture into milk and stir vigorously with a whisk until smooth. You may use an immersion blender or frother, if you'd like.
6. Strain, if needed, serve & enjoy.
7. May choose to top with whipped cream or marshmellows.
