HOMEMADE HOT CHOCOLATE

Do you love cot chocolate as much as I do?

Well today I'm sharing my favorite easy homemade hot chocolate recipe with you 

HOMEMADE HOT CHOCOLATE RECIPE

Ingredients

·      1 Tablespoon Hershey’s cocoa powder 

·      1/3 cup white sugar (use 1/4 cup sugar if you like your hot chocolate less sweet)

·      1 3/4 cups milk

·      1/4 cup milk (to be used separately from other milk)

Directions:

1. Stir together the cocoa powder & sugar in a medium saucepan.

2. The cocoa powder will be lumpy, and that’s normal. Just blended them together well.

3. Add 1/4 cup of milk, you can use any kind of milk.

4. The cocoa and milk won’t mix together well. You can change that by applying heat.  Bring the mixture to a low boil over medium high heat, stirring constantly.  

5. I let it boil for a minute or two, until the sugar is dissolved.  Don’t let it burn! Continue stirring!

6. Once it’s all mixed together, I add the rest of the milk

Adding the cold milk will drop the temperature so you’ll need to turn the heat back up to get it hot again.  

Serve in a cup hot chocolate mug or cute cups like these cappuccino cups from Sweezy on Amazon.

 I like to top my hot cocoa with some whipping cream and cinnamon

You can also add some crushed up candy canes for a peppermint flavor

Have fun adding other flavors to your hot cocoa. The possibilities are endless!

Enjoy your cup of yummy Hot Chocolate!

Have a great day.
