- Add toppings: Generously top each mug with whipped cream, mini marshmallows, pastel rainbow sprinkles, and edible glitter if using.
- Serve: Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your magical Unicorn Hot Chocolate.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute whole milk with oat or almond milk and use dairy-free white chocolate chips.
- For a dreamy galaxy effect, mix in blue or purple food coloring along with the pink.
