Creamy, flavorful, and wonderfully comforting, this Slow Cooker Pumpkin Hot Chocolate is a cozy fall drink made with minimal ingredients. The combination of pumpkin, chocolate, and warm spices creates a deliciously rich drink that feels right at home during pumpkin season.

Fall has officially arrived, which means it’s time for all things pumpkin. This hot chocolate brings together two favorite flavors in one comforting drink, with white chocolate adding an extra layer of richness that makes the combination especially delicious.
The recipe is also wonderfully simple because everything comes together in the slow cooker. There’s no need to dirty multiple dishes, and cleanup stays easy once the hot chocolate is ready to serve.
White chocolate is the preferred choice here, especially high quality chocolate chips such as Ghirardelli. They melt smoothly and tend to stay creamy longer instead of becoming clumpy like some other chocolate chips can.
White chocolate isn’t required, though. Dark, semi sweet, or milk chocolate can also be used in this recipe. Still, white chocolate pairs especially well with the pumpkin flavor and remains the recommended choice for this particular drink.
Be sure to use a whole can of pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. Pumpkin pie spice also adds that familiar pumpkin flavor. If store bought spice isn’t preferred, it can be made with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.

This Creamy Slow Cooker Pumpkin Hot Chocolate is a delicious party drink you and your guests will love. With the chocolate, pumpkin and spices, it is the perfect combination of flavors. It’s easy to make and easy to serve to your guests on a cold night! Please leave a star rating and comment to let us know how you liked this recipe!Creamy Slow Cooker Pumpkin Hot Chocolate
