1

In a medium-sized saucepan, mix the dry ingredients, and turn the stovetop to medium-low.
2

Add 1/4 cup of the milk, and stir smooth.
3

Stir in, bit by bit, more and more of the milk, but only as much at a time as can be added while keeping the liquid silky smooth.
4

When all milk is incorporated, add the vanilla.
5

Allow the hot cocoa to thicken just a bit, by stirring for about 5-7 more minutes, and then serve with marshmallows.

I am a Boston attorney raised on Sicilian and Calabrian cooking.I study new foods and cuisines all the time, and I've been cooking most of my life. I really try to stay away from using processed food as ingredients or forcing together clashing spices. I go for more savory than sweet.
