Homemade Hot Chocolate
When the weather gets cold (or dips below 60) my kids start demanding hot chocolate nearly daily. I used to stock up on a high-quality mix until I realized I had everything on hand to make our own.

Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- A pinch of salt
- Whipped cream (optional)
Preparation
Warm the milk in a medium size pot over medium heat. Whisk in the sugar, cocoa, vanilla and salt. Blend for 30 seconds using an immersion blender (optional – you can also just whisk vigorously). Pour into two mugs and top with whipped cream, if desired.
