Brace yourselves, dear readers. Today, I am going to change your lives with a cup of hot chocolate. Recently, I stumbled upon (literally) the BEST hot chocolate recipe. I found the recipe on the cutest ever blog--Short Stop Blog. Please take time to check out Sarah's blog--especially if you love pretty recipes!
Just to keep things easy, I'm going to post the recipe here.
World's Best Hot Chocolate
Mix:
8 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips (mini chips work best!)
2/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (I used less)
Store in an airtight container.
For 4 servings:
2/3 cup cocoa mix
1/4 cup water
4 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
In a large pan on low heat, stir cocoa mix and water until melted. Add milk and beat with wisk until smooth. Heat on low until hot. Add vanilla. Serve. Wait for people to bow down before you and kiss your feet.
For a single serving:
Add 2 heaping Tablespoons of cocoa mix to the bottom of a mug. Pour just enough boiling water to cover mix, and stir until the chocolate melts. Add milk to the top of your mug and add a splash of vanilla. Microwave until heated.
Now, I have to warn you good people. This hot chocolate is RICH. Don't get all crazy and drink several mugs of it. Because, if you do, your belly will telly you...Well, things you don't want to know.
Go ye forth, and make the World's BEST Cup of Hot Chocolate!!
What is your favorite chilly-day treat?
