White Hot Chocolate

Pour the fat-free half-and-half and fat-free milk into a large saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is steaming but not boiling.

Add the Nestle Toll House Premier White Morsels and Splenda no calorie sweetener to the warm milk mixture, stirring constantly until the white morsels are completely melted and the sweetener is dissolved.

Stir in the vanilla extract if using, blending it thoroughly throughout the hot chocolate.

Pour the white hot chocolate into four mugs, dividing evenly.

Top each mug with a dollop of thawed fat-free frozen whipped topping and a sprinkle of crushed peppermint candies before serving.
