Homemade Hot Cocoa
posted by
Earlier this winter, Mom and I found a home made hot cocoa recipe. We tried it out on the family and there were oohs and ahhs over the delicious taste. After a snowy adventure or game of soccer in the cold 
outdoors, this recipe is one every one will definitely enjoy!
Homemade Hot Cocoa
____________________
1 cup of sugar

1/4 teaspoon of salt
8 cups of milk
2/3 cups of water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Combine the sugar, cocoa and salt in a large pan. Stir in milk and water. Cook and stir over medium heat until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat and stir in extract. Serve in your favorite mugs with a few little marshmallows on top to finish it off. Yields: 10 servings (some of you may have to double it 
)
Ahh yes, this delectable drink is sure to win your taste bud’s approval – very tasty! Also, isn’t it so that anything homemade is better for you?
I’m glad we have this recipe recorded here for years of future reference. Thank you Mom and Sarah for keeping your eyes open for such delcious concoctions! I look forward to your next discovery.
I herein claim that this Chocolate drink is horribly tasty, terribly refreshing,and completely enjoyable. All those who have had the misfortune of only drinking store bought ‘Hot Chocolate’ need to expend the necessary energy to make and drink this comforting drink. And thankyou Sarah for performing this great service for all people, nations, and cultures, in writing this much needed post.
