 Does anyone have a yummy easy hot chocolate recipe that they don't mind sharing. My son has gotten into them and I thought it would be neat if we could make some together

Re: Hot chocolate
 I made one up the other night when I wanted an Alpine and had no mix.

I posted it on my myspace...give me a min and I'll get it...


8oz milk
2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
2 Tbsp sugar
Dash salt
1/4 tsp vanilla
2oz peppermint schnapps

Heat milk in microwave for 2 minutes in separate container.  In large mug, mix together cocoa, sugar and salt.  Slowly add hot milk to cocoa mixture and mix well.  Stir in vanilla and peppermint schnapps. 

Adding the vanilla and schnapps cools it down a bit...so if you like it hot, stick it back in the microwave for 15-20 seconds.  But not too long, you'll ruin it.


There ya go...just leave out the schnapps and it's REALLY yummy hot chocolate!

 Here's how it works at our house.....we make the packaged cocoa (the kind with lots of those freeze dried marshmallows).  Eli eats the marshmallows out of it.  And I get the rest.  :-D  One of the companies makes this really good French Vanilla flavored one.  Otherwise, I have no idea how to make it myself!

Re: Hot chocolate
 10 cups dry milk powder
1 lb powdered sugar
1 3/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
6 oz jar (about 1 3/4 cups) nondairy creamer

Mix altogether (I sift to get out any lumps in the cocoa and sugar) and store in airtight container.

Mix 1/3 cup mixture per cup (or to taste) and add boiling water.

You can stir in 1/2 cup instant coffee for a mocha version or 1 1/2 cups malted milk powder for a malted version. If you use different flavors of powdered coffee creamer, you can get different flavors of hot cocoa, too.
 
I make up a BIG bulk batch.  Give some away as "Snowman Soup" with Marshmallows and candy canes for stiring.  It keeps well in a plastic storage container.
