Homemade Hot Cocoa

This is the recipe for my FAVORITE hot cocoa! It's yummy!!!!!!!!!!!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup Hershey's Cocoa Powder
1/4 cup HOT water
Dash of salt
4 Cups milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Optional: 1 tablespoon of vanilla ice cream

Mix sugar, cocoa & salt together with wisk. (dry mix) Add HOT water and continue to wisk.
Bring to a boil over medium/high heat.
CONTINUE stirring constantly for about 2 minutes.
Pour in milk and vanilla.
Make sure to keep stirring occassionally so not to burn the milk.
Keep on stove until hot.
Pour into cups. For children, to cool it to the perfect temperature, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla ice cream and stir until melted. Test it first, but this usually takes it to the perfect warm temp and adds to the richness! Yummy for adults, too!!!!

enjoy!
