Pumpkin Ghost Hot Chocolate
On a chilly Halloween evening, the Geedel Vegetable Chopper prepares smooth pumpkin purée in just 10 minutes—no peeling or chopping needed. Topped with marshmallow "ghosts" and cinnamon, this sweet, spiced hot chocolate becomes a magical warm-up drink the whole family will love.
Ingredients
150g pumpkin (peeled and deseeded)
300ml whole milk
50g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
6 marshmallows
1 tsp cinnamon powder
15g fine sugar
20g heavy cream (for decoration)
A pinch of bamboo charcoal powder (for marshmallows)
Instructions
1. Chop Pumpkin: Quick & Even
Cut pumpkin into 3cm-wide strips. Place in the Geedel Vegetable Chopper using vegetable chopper mode (wide blade). Press once—uniform 2cm cubes are ready (6x faster than hand-cutting). Steam for 15 minutes until easily pierced with a fork.
2. Blend Pumpkin & Chocolate Base: Smooth & Rich
Transfer steamed pumpkin to the food chopper mode, add 50ml milk, and press twice into a creamy purée. Warm the remaining milk in a saucepan with pumpkin purée and sugar. Simmer for 3 minutes, then turn off the heat. Add dark chocolate, stirring until fully melted.
3. Create Ghost Toppings: Halloween Fun
Halve the marshmallows. Use a touch of bamboo charcoal powder (or chocolate pen) to draw eyes on one half, creating "little ghosts." Pour hot chocolate into mugs, pipe a swirl of heavy cream, place marshmallow ghosts on top, and dust with cinnamon.
4. Warm & Cozy Serving Tips
Make pumpkin purée ahead with the Geedel and store in the fridge. Reduce sugar or use substitutes for a lighter version. For extra creaminess, stir in 1 tbsp heavy cream before serving.
