Preparation
- Step 1
Combine sugar and cocoa in a medium-size saucepan; blend in hot water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Allow mixture to boil 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Step 2
Add milk and heat to serving temperature (do not boil). Remove from heat and add vanilla extract.
- If you would like an unusually flavored cocoa, you might substitute for the vanilla extract either ½ teaspoon of maple, mint or orange extract; 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules, or ⅛ teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg.

Skim milk? bleh. Full fat organic thank you. No worries, those calories will fall away while shoveling snow and hauling in firewood today. :-)
Replace 1/4 of milk with heavy whipping cream for a super creamy taste.
I like to add about 1/2 tsp of espresso powder to the mix. And definitely whole milk, forget that skim nonsense.
I am an absolute sugar junior and this is WAY too sweet for me
Quick and delicious! Used whole milk and a splash of heavy cream.
Try 2 drops of Ube extract and a tiny dash of cinnamon
