marshmallows or peppermint stickfor serving (optional)
Instructions
Heat the milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it is hot. DO NOT BOIL.
Remove from the heat and stir in Nutella until well combined.
Pour the mixture into a mug and top with marshmallows or a peppermint stick, if desired.
Serve immediately.
Notes
To make in a microwave: You'll want to put the milk in a microwave-safe mug and heat it until it is warmed through WITHOUT boiling it. Stir in the Nutella. Top with mini marshmallows and/or a peppermint stick, if desired.
For an extra creamy recipe: add 1/2 cup heavy cream and bump up the amount of Nutella to 1/4 cup.
If you are making this for a crowd: a slow cooker is a great way to make plenty and keep the drinks warm! You'll want to use the same measurements and heat the mixture over low or high heat until hot and then switch it over to keep warm.
