Making homemade hot chocolate is one of my favorite things to do once the weather turns cold. I love the smell and how creamy and delicious it is!! So much better than a packet.

How to Make Pumpkin Hot Chocolate

  • Stir them until they are all combined and the chocolate is melted. 
  • Add the spices and extract and bring to a simmer. 
  • Serve and enjoy!! So easy. 

What kind of chocolate should I use for Pumpkin Hot Chocolate? 

The answer to that question is ultimately up to you. Since the pumpkin adds a lot of flavor that isn’t sweet, I like to use milk chocolate when I make pumpkin hot chocolate. If you like a more bitter taste, try semi-sweet or bittersweet. 

I also like to use a combination of semi-sweet and milk chocolate. I will often add half the chocolate and then taste as I go so I can get it just right!
