Orange Dark Hot Chocolate on a Stick

A unique gift from the kitchen – a fudgy square of orange-flavored chocolate and a marshmallow on a lollipop stick to swirl into hot milk for rich and creamy hot chocolate.

Orange Dark Hot Chocolate on a Stick

Prep: 15 min | Yield: 36 (1 cup) servings

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds semi-sweet baking chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Orange Extract
  • 18 large marshmallows, halved crosswise
  • 36 lollipop sticks

Instructions

  1. Line a 9 inch square baking pan with foil. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray. Place chopped chocolate in large bowl. Set aside.
  2. Bring sweetened condensed milk and cream to simmer in medium saucepan on medium heat, stirring frequently with wire whisk. Pour over chopped chocolate. Let stand for 1 minute.
  3. Whisk until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Stir in orange extract. Pour into prepared pan.
  4. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight until firm. Cut into 36 squares. (May be made ahead. Store chocolate mixture, tightly covered, in pan in refrigerator up to 2 weeks. Bring to room temperature before cutting into squares.)
  5. To assemble chocolate on a stick, thread a marshmallow half and a chocolate square onto each lollipop stick. Wrap each hot chocolate on a stick in plastic wrap or small cellophane bag. (May be assembled up to 2 days ahead.)
  6. To serve, stir hot chocolate on a stick into 8 ounces hot milk.
