It's that time of year again! Hot cocoa is one of our favorite winter treats.
I have a great recipe to share with you that makes a nice large batch.
Katie's Homemade Cocoa
1/2 c. sugar
1/3 c. cocoa powder
1/3 c. milk
Add all above ingredients in a medium sauce pot & use a whisk to blend into a nice paste. Heat over medium heat until slightly bubbly. Once little bubbles start to roll add:
4 c. milk
1.5 tsp. pure vanilla
Stir continually until the cocoa is very warm but not so hot that it's hard to sip for little ones.
I top it with whipped topping or marshmallows.
If you want a little something special you can add:
1 tsp. pure mint or peppermint extract for Peppermint Mocha
