This rich, velvety hot chocolate comes together on the stovetop with oat milk, cocoa powder, and melted chocolate whisked into a smooth, steaming base. A touch of maple syrup adds gentle sweetness while vanilla and a pinch of salt round out the flavor into something deeply cozy. Since everything is heated through and whisked to a glossy finish, there's no concern about raw eggs or unpasteurized dairy to worry about here. Marshmallows on top add that classic melty finish, making it feel like a proper treat rather than a compromise. It's an easy, comforting drink to make anytime you want something warm and chocolatey, and it fits neatly into a pregnancy-friendly kitchen.
