Instructions
- Whip the Chocolate Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry hot chocolate mix and heavy cream vigorously until the mixture becomes stiff and creamy, forming a fluffy whipped chocolate topping.
- Heat the Chocolate Milk: Gently warm the chocolate milk on the stovetop or in the microwave until it reaches a comfortable drinking temperature, being careful not to boil.

Notes
- For best results, use cold heavy cream to achieve maximum whipping volume.
- Adjust sweetness by selecting your preferred hot chocolate mix or adding sweeteners.
- If you prefer a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream and chocolate milk with coconut cream and almond milk, respectively.
- Gently heat the chocolate milk to avoid scalding or creating a skin on top.
