DIY Hot Chocolate!


 Recipe:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup Hershy's Cocoa
Dash Salt
1/3 cup hot water
4 cups milk
3/4 tsp. vanilla extract

1. Mix sugar, cocoa, and salt in saucepan.
2. Stir in water.
3. Stir over medium heat until it boils.
4. Stir in milk and heat (don't boil).
5. Add vanilla & remove from heat.



I cut this recipe in half because I was making it for just myself. It makes quite a lot, but if you're making it for more than one or two people, then I would do the full recipe. 

It really is the most delicious hot chocolate ever! During Christmas time it is a must have, and it's super easy to make. 


Pop some whip cream, marshmallows, and a candy cane in it, and you're good to go! 

Do you have any special drinks you make this time of year?
