Red Velvet Hot Chocolate

1. In a heat-resistant bowl, melt the white and milk chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth.

2. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, bring the milk and whipping cream to a simmer. Remove from the heat and add the melted chocolate, vanilla, Liquid Red Velvet, food colouring, and salt. Whisk together until combined.

Red Velvet Whip

1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the cream, icing sugar, cocoa powder, Liquid Red Velvet, and vanilla and whip on medium-high speed until the mixture looks light and fluffy and medium peaks form, about 2 minutes. Be careful not to overwhip.

Assembly

1. Divide the Red Velvet Hot Chocolate evenly among 5 mugs. Add a large dollop of Red Velvet Whip to each mug and garnish with Punch Bowl Edible Glitter Dazzle Dust, Rose Macaron Edible Glitter Dazzle Dust and Love Notes Sprinkles.
