Hot Cocoa Dip Toppings

To add even more flavor, garnish your dip however you’d like. Here are some of our favorite ideas.

  • mini marshmallows
  • mini m&ms
  • mini chocolate chips
  • crushed peppermint
  • colorful candy sprinkles

Flavor Additions 

If you like flavored hot chocolate, experiment with your Hot Cocoa Dip. Try adding a little peppermint, raspberry, or almond extract. You might like cinnamon too.

Be sure to start with small amounts of these mix-ins, and add more if needed. 

Dipping Ideas

Here are a few tasty ideas for dipping:

  • graham crackers
  • vanilla wafers
  • shortbread cookies
  • Golden Oreos
  • animal crackers
  • chocolate chip cookies
  • sugar cookies

How to Store This Dip

Refrigerate your Hot Cocoa Dip until you’re ready to serve it. You can eat it right away, but the flavors really come together after an hour or so in the refrigerator.

Leftover dip should be stored in an airtight container for up to three or four days. This dip does not freeze and thaw well.
