White hot chocolate can be tricky to work with. Here are a few tips to ensure this delicious drink turns out perfect every time!
Freeze: Before chopping or grating your white chocolate pieces, freeze them. This will help prevent the white chocolate from melting or becoming too soft.
How to Chop: For more finely chopped white chocolate, you can use a blender or food processor if needed. Chopping or grating your white chocolate will also be fine.
Don’t Overcook It: Once it is simmering, take it off the stove immediately before it starts to boil. You don’t want to overcook it!
Garnish: Toast your white hot chocolate using a broiler or a kitchen torch to caramelize the top.

Making ahead: Follow the instructions accordingly, then let cool entirely once simmered. Place in an airtight container. Your white hot chocolate will become hard in the refrigerator.
Warming up: This white hot chocolate is great for making ahead; however, you will want to warm it up slowly and bring it to a simmer. Then remove quickly to serve.
