Baileys Slow Cooker Hot Chocolate – The perfect, most creamy and delicious crock pot hot chocolate you can imagine. Ideal for Christmas and winter days.
I’m going to commit a festive sin and admit to you that I’m not a big fan of Baileys Irish cream Liqueur. I know. How can a Christmas lover like myself possibly admit such a thing?
But then one cold winter night.. Anna and I went shopping and came home and needed warming up and after the deliciousness of my No Bake Baileys Cheesecake, this just somehow happened!
I made it in a saucepan on the hob that night but since have tailored the recipe to make it in a slow cooker (crock pot). I think it would be the perfect thing to leave at home on low, ready for the grown ups when you come in from a cold and frosty walk. Or leave out the Baileys and serve to the whole family.
What’s your favourite Christmas drink?
Tips for making the Baileys Slow Cooker Hot Chocolate:
- You could make this by gently warming on the hob instead of in the slow cooker. I just bought a new slow cooker and I am IN LOVE with it! I’ve never been a big slow cooker fan but this has made a big difference. So light and easy, really affordable too and the pan can be used on the hob as well as in the slow cooker, hurrah! Available from Amazon: Morphy Richards Sear and Stew Slow Cooker.
- If you can, using good quality cocoa will make a big difference to the end product I use this one, available from Amazon: Organic Fairtrade Cocoa Powder.
- The same goes for the chocolate, I use this one, it is amazing and make such a difference to all of my finished makes and bakes. If you buy in bulk (1 kilo) it works out about the same price as supermarket chocolate too, win! From Amazon: Callebaut 54% Dark Chocolate Chips.
- Just leave out the Baileys Irish cream if you’re serving to children.
- You could mix and match and try other liqueurs too, how about Frangelico for hazelnut hot chocolate?
