Hot chocolate in winter is basically the ice cream of summer; creamy, comforting, and the perfect way to make everything feel a little sweeter.

Ingredients

2 cups of milk (or any milk alternative like oat or almond milk)

2 tablespoons cocoa powder (unsweetened)
2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for extra flavor)
Whipped cream or marshmallows for topping (optional)

In a small bowl, combine the cocoa powder, sugar, and salt. If you like your hot chocolate extra rich, you can add a little more cocoa or sugar!

Once the milk is warm, add the cocoa mixture to the milk, whisking continuously to dissolve the powder completely and make it smooth.

Once everything is well combined and heated to your liking, pour the hot chocolate into a mug.

Top with whipped cream, marshmallows, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon or cocoa powder for a fancy touch.

Enjoy your cozy drink!
