Ive been craving for a thick, creamy, melt-in-your-mouth hot chocolate. So, I searched and found this, will try it soon! CREAMY HOT COCOA Description: Its old fashioned, its comforting, it makes the kitchen smell wonderful and its good for the soul. Ingredients: 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 3/4 cup white sugar 1 pinch salt 1/3 cup boiling water 3 1/2 cups milk 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup half-and-half cream Direction: Combine the cocoa, sugar and pinch of salt in a saucepan. Blend in the boiling water. Bring this mixture to an easy boil while you stir. Simmer and stir for about 2 minutes. Watch that it doesnt scorch. Stir in 3 1/2 cups of milk and heat until very hot, but do not boil! Remove from heat and add vanilla. Divide between 4 mugs. Add the cream to the mugs of cocoa to cool it to drinking temperature. Enjoy!
