Slow Cooker Peppermint Mocha Snuggler - this easy crockpot hot chocolate recipe is filled with peppermint flavor! Keep it plain for kids or make it an adult cocktail with espresso and schnapps!

On our first New Year’s Eve in Arizona our neighbors had a block party. This was years ago, back in 2002, before we had Jordan, when we were just a young newlywed couple. It was the first time I was ever away from home and my friends for the holidays, but luckily I’d made good friends with my neighbor across the street. (Actually, it was the first time I’ve ever become friends with a neighbor. She was so nice and we were great friends until we moved back to California where my next neighbor friendship wasn’t so great…and why all my neighbors are now kept at arms length).

Anyway, I digress. So, New Year’s Eve. It was Arizona, remember, so it was cold but not cold like it gets in the midwest. No snow, no rain, just cold. We all hung out in our front yards all night long, doing what, I don’t remember. I remember being cold, and wearing a huge coat, and I remember gunshots going off at midnight (I KNOW, RIGHT?) and I remember drinking Snugglers out of a travel coffee mug.

Have you ever had a Snuggler? I know it sounds like an adult onesie, but really it’s a drink. It’s hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps so it keeps you doubly warm…and tastes like Christmas in a glass.

(BTW, it’s November now so I can go all CHRISTMAS on you, right?)

Every year I make Snugglers at Christmas and I think, “I should share this on Crazy for Crust” but then it’s after the holidays and I forget. This year I’m totally on top of things! Not only is this drink great for adults, but it can be made easily for kids too, and it’s made in the slow cooker!

Peppermint Mocha Snuggler - an easy cocktail recipe made in the crockpot! Simple hot chocolate filled with peppermint mocha coffee creamer, espresso, and peppermint schnapps.

There are a million crockpot hot chocolate recipes out there, made with cocoa or chocolate chips, milk or heavy cream or water. This one is different: it’s a Peppermint MOCHA recipe! But it’s great for kids and adults, so coffee is optional.

Slow Cooker Peppermint Mochas take about 5 minutes of prep time. Just mix the 5 ingredients in your crockpot and heat on high, stirring every 30 minutes, until the chocolate is all melted and your house smells wonderful. The sweetness comes from sweetened condensed milk, the body comes from milk, the chocolate comes from chocolate chips (use your favorite kind), and the peppermint mocha comes from my favorite coffee creamer.
