With a good percentage of the nation blanketed in snow, I thought now would be the perfect time to share my recipe for delicious hot cocoa for four. My family topped off many a snow day with this treat.
In a saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa with ½ cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Add about ¼ cup of water and stir over low heat until smooth. Add 4 cups of milk, 1 teaspoon of almond extract and a ¼ teaspoon of salt. Taste and add more sugar if you want it sweeter.
And, of course, don’t forget to add mini marshmallows or whipped cream.
