Hot Chocolate Dip

With 4 ingredients and 5 minutes, you can enjoy this Hot Chocolate Dip. The perfect dessert dip to serve for any holiday occasion, super easy, tasty, and fun.

I have a huge thing for all things hot chocolate. Hot chocolate itself or desserts that are flavored like hot chocolate. This Hot Chocolate Dip is one that we just cannot get enough of.

You know those desserts that you just want to eat with a spoon? This dip is one of them, you really just cannot get enough, plus it is SO simple to make.

Kids also go crazy for this, and they love helping make it as well since it is a super easy and no-bake recipe. So if you have kids, get them in the kitchen and have them help you whip this up.

This is great to serve at home for movie nights, at holiday functions, or just because you are craving something chocolate flavored.

Serve with all your favorite dippers, and you have yourself a dessert dip that you will be making over and over again.
