What is Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate?

I was first introduced to this drink at a Starbucks years ago. Starbucks has a version of this with coffee (a salted caramel mocha) and one without (the salted caramel hot chocolate).

It’s basically just like any regular hot chocolate, but even more indulgent and rich because it includes melted baking caramels and a touch of sea salt.

If you want to make the best salted caramel hot chocolate, make sure you have the following ingredients:

  • Milk Chocolate Bar (or, use your favorite chocolate of choice!)
  • Hershey’s Cocoa Powder
  • Baking Caramels
  • Sea Salt
  • Whipped Cream

How to Make Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate

  1. To make this recipe, start by chopping up your chocolate bar or grating it so it melts easier and more evenly in your mixture.
  2. Then, in a heavy bottom pan, add in your milk, chocolate bar, cocoa powder, baking caramels, and sea salt, and heat the mixture over a low-medium heat until the chocolate completely dissolves. Make sure to stir constantly with a rubber or wooden spatula so the milk does not burn at the bottom.
  3. Then, let the mixture come to a soft boil for 30 seconds or so (or until desired temperature) and then remove it from the heat. Finally, garnish your recipe with fluffy whipped cream, cocoa powder, more sea salt, and a chocolate wafer straw.
