There's nothing more satisfying than making a rich hot cocoa that does not come from a foil-lined paper envelope.

Ingredients

10 mins

6 servings

1/4 cupcocoa powder
1/4 cupall-purpose flour
1/2 cupsugar
6 cupmilk
1/2 tspvanilla extract
1bag of regular or mini marshmallows

Cooking Instructions

10 mins

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.

Hot chocolate is always best when it's homemade. It's also nearly as fast to make it homemade as to make it from a mix, you just heat up the milk then stir everything together. This is rich and creamy, sweet but not too sweet. The chocolate is the star of this show, so use a good quality one...not only will it taste better but the chocolate will melt smoother also. I like Ghirardelli brand. This recipe is enough for either two large mugs or 4 smaller mugs.

This hot cocoa is super easy and healthy. The measurements are too taste so add as much as you like. Try experimenting with different extracts. You can also add chocolate to make the texture a bit richer!
