Pumpkin Spice White Hot Chocolate for a Crowd

This is a really basic white hot chocolate that can be spiked with coffee liqueur or served by itself, and topped with whipped cream and pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon. I make the hot chocolate in a slow cooker for about 3 hours on Low, and then keep on Warm for as long as I want to serve. It makes a lot, so you can keep it in the fridge and then just reheat on the stove on low when you want to serve again.
