HOT CHOCOLATE & COCOA MIX

 YIELD: 1 serving for a 12 ounce mug. This is a rich drink, so if it's too much, feel free to split it up into two 10 ounce servings and add more milk.


INGREDIENTS

12 ounces milk

6 tablespoons cocoa mix (see below)

1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract


DIRECTIONS

1. In a small sauce pan over medium heat, warm the milk until bubbles form around the edges. Pour half into a 12 ounce mug. Return the remaining milk back over medium heat.

2. Add cocoa mix and chocolate chips to pot and whisk until smooth. Bring chocolate mixture to a boil and allow to bubble for 2 minutes while whisking to prevent a skin from forming. Turn off heat.

3. Whisk in vanilla extract and pour mixture into 12 ounce mug. Give the mug a quick stir to blend. Enjoy. [TIP: Do not scrap bottom of pan because the residue left behind is scorched and unappetizing.]



COCOA MIX

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/2 cup cocoa powder (any kind is fine)

1/8 teaspoon table salt


Combine in an air tight container, seal, and shake. Can be kept in a cool, dry place for 3 months.
