Description
This Purple Halloween White Hot Chocolate is a fun and festive drink made with creamy oat milk, vegan white chocolate, and naturally colored purple with black carrot powder. Top each mug with a generous swirl of vegan whipped cream, Halloween sprinkles, and candy eyeballs for a spooky-cute treat that’s perfect for Halloween parties, movie nights, or an after-trick-or-treating warm-up.
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened plant-based milk, divided (such as oat milk, rice, almond, coconut, soy)
- 4 teaspoons black carrot powder
- 1/3 cup dairy-free white chocolate chips or chopped vegan white chocolate
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Vegan whipped cream, for topping
- Halloween-colored sprinkles, for topping (preferably dye-free)
- Candy eyeballs, for topping
Instructions
- Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons of the plant milk and 4 teaspoons of black carrot powder directly to a small saucepan. Whisk until completely smooth and no lumps remain.
- Gradually whisk in the remaining milk, adding a small amount at first and whisking until smooth before pouring in the rest. Warm the mixture until steaming, but do not allow it to boil.
- Add the white chocolate and whisk until completely melted and the hot chocolate is smooth and creamy.
- Whisk in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
- Divide the hot chocolate between two mugs. Top generously with vegan whipped cream, Halloween-colored sprinkles, and candy eyeballs.
Notes
READ THE BLOG POST FOR MORE TIPS & INFORMATION!
Sweetness: Depending on the dairy-free white chocolate you use, you may want to add maple syrup for added sweetness. The non-dairy white chocolate chips I used are sweetened, so I did not add any maple syrup.
Sprinkles: I used these Nonparelis Halloween Sprinkles, these purple sprinkles, and these orange sprinkles.
Storage: Store leftover hot chocolate without toppings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop and whisk well before serving.
