Good ole Fashion Hot Cocoa


'Worry looks around,
Sorry looks back,
Faith looks up.'




This is Cocoa the way my mother used to make for us when I was a kid.
Full flavored and rich tasting with out all the additives.
The ingredients couldn't be simpler, and so much more cost effective than the packages.
For 4 servings you need-
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup boiling water
  • 4 cups of hot milk
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract (optional)
Serving for one-
  • 1 tbsp. cocoa
  • 1 tbsp. sugar
  • a bit of boiling water
  • 1 cup hot milk
  • a drop of vanilla extract if you want, but is just fine without
  1. Stir together the cocoa powder and sugar.
  2. Add the boiling water to dissolve the cocoa and sugar.
  3. Add the hot milk.
  4. Top off the cocoa with your favorite toppings like, marshmallows, whipping cream, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
  5. Sit back relax and enjoy!
A variation to try is to mix it with some hot coffee instead of boiling water to make it a mocha.
Very tasty and comforting indeed.
