a cup of homemade hot chocolate is so delightful!
Homemade Hot Chocolate
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cup white sugar (more if you prefer a less dark chocolate taste)
a pinch of salt
2/3 cup boiling water
7 cups milk
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
whipped cream
Combine the cocoa, sugar, and salt in a saucepan. Blend in the boiling water. Bring this mixture to an easy boil while stirring. Simmer and stir for about 2 minutes. Watch that it does not scorch. Stir in milk and heat until hot, but do not boil! Remove from heat and add vanilla. Ladle into mugs and garnish with whipped cream. Makes about 8 servings.
Refrigerate any leftover hot chocolate and make a delicious morning mocha latte the next day!
