Ingredients

Whipped Cream

  • Pint-sized mason jar with lid
  • 1/4 cup cold heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • Dash of vanilla optional

Pink Hot Chocolate

  • 2 cups milk
  • 4 oz good-quality white chocolate chopped
  • 2-4 drops red food coloring
  • Sprinkles optional

Instructions

Whipped Cream

  • Put your mason jar in the freezer for 15 minutes, so it is very cold.
  • Pour in cream, sugar, and vanilla.
  • Screw on lid and wrap the jar in a towel if it is too cold to hold. Shake vigorously until you no longer hear liquid sloshing inside, about 5-7 minutes. Check the consistency of your whipped cream before setting in the refrigerator while you make your hot chocolate.

Hot Chocolate

  • In a small saucepan, heat milk. Add chocolate and stir until completely dissolved and milk reaches desired temperature. Do not allow to boil. Remove from heat and stir in food coloring.

Assemble

  • Pour into cups, spoon on whipped cream, and top with sprinkles.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

To make whipped cream without a mason jar, simply add the cream, sugar, and optional vanilla to a medium-sized chilled bowl and beat by hand or with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. (This method isn't quite as fun, but it is undeniably faster. ;) )
