Recipe: Hot Chocolate

There are many recipes for homemade hot chocolate. I modified some that I found to my tastes. Here is my recipe:

1-1.5 C Milk

1T baking cocoa (regular or special dark)

2T Sugar

Pinch of cinnamon

Pinch of salt

Pinch of nutmeg, ginger, and/or cloves.

1.     Pour the milk into a sauce pan and scald it (let little bubbles form around the edge)

2.     Add sugar and stir until dissolved

3.     Add baking cocoa and spices, stir

4.     Pour into mug and enjoy.

You can use less sugar; I just like my hot chocolate strong and very sweet.
