Delicious creamy and rich hot cocoa. Perfect for a chilly day to keep cozy and warm! Use 3 cups total milk for a more darker chocolate flavor, and add an extra cup to make it more milk-chocolate--still delicious! From the kitchen of Rosanna Pansino.

RICH DARK HOT COCOA



Rich Dark Hot Cocoa image

I was experimenting with stove-top cocoa (seeking an alternative to the packet mix and all those nasty additives). The end result is creamy, and thick. I love the body this cocoa has, and it's a satisfying snack that soothes a chocolate craving.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 qt organic skim milk
6 Tbsp granulated sugar
4 Tbsp hershey's special dark cocoa powder
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium saucepan, add the cold milk, coconut oil and whisk in the cornstarch and mix well. Set on medium-high heat. Whisking constantly, add cocoa powder, sugar and sea salt. Continue whisking - bring the mixture up to a moderate bubble, and turn off heat, but leave pot on the burner and continue cooking and stirring. The cocoa will have thickened. Add the vanilla and mix well. Taste the mixture & adjust sugar if needed. To serve, I pour the mixture into a one-quart Pyrex measuring cup to facilitate pouring. Top with marshmallows or whipped cream, if desired.
