Key Ingredients & Tips
- Good White Chocolate: Use quality white chocolate chips for the best creamy texture.
- Crushed Candy Canes: Add them at the end for fresh mint flavor and a pretty garnish.

- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- Crushed candy canes, for garnish

Step 1: Combine Ingredients
Pour the milk and heavy cream into your slow cooker. Add the white chocolate chips and granulated sugar. Stir everything together gently.
Step 2: Cook Until Warm
Cover your crockpot and cook on the LOW setting for 2-3 hours, or until the white chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is warm. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure everything blends well.
