The girl is sick today, so I made her hot cocoa (from scratch, not the packets). Recipe below. Wish her well!
2 tablespoons & 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder
1/4 cup of sugar
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons & 2 teaspoons of boiling water
1 3/4 c. of milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 c. to 1 c. half and half
Mix together cocoa powder, sugar, and salt in a saucepan
Add boiling water and bring to simmer
Simmer for 2 minutes or so (but don’t burn it)
Add in the milk and cook it so it’s H.O.T. (but don’t boil it)
Remove from heat and add vanilla
Divide into 2 mugs
Top with cream (to bring the temp down) and stir
Add whip cream because duh.
Drink. 🙂
