Melt-in-your-mouth Caramel Hot Chocolate

A few weeks ago I shared a fun mint hot chocolate + ice cream concoction and it was so good we decided to experiment with a caramel version. The best part about this one is that you don’t need any special kind of hot chocolate because its the creamer + ice cream combo that make it so good. So, do yourself a favor and curl up with one of these and your favorite Christmas movie for a deliciously cozy evening in.

I picked up everything I needed for this post at Target (the creamer is refrigerated but they also have some non refrigerated options by the coffee + hot chocolate). I did have to exercise quite a bit of self control not to buy all their darling Christmas decorations (and I couldn’t resist picking up some Christmas jammies for Lincoln).

Here’s What You’ll Need:

• 1 packet regular hot chocolate
• Dunkin Donuts Extra Extra Creamer in caramel (available at Target)
• whipped cream
• dulce de leche ice cream (or some vanilla based ice cream with caramel swirled in)
• caramel sauce for garnish, optional
