We made our first batch of Hot Chocolate Friday. 
Hot Chocolate
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa
Dash salt
1/3 cup hot water
4 cups (1 qt.) milk
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Miniature marshmallows or sweetened whipped cream(optional)
Directions:
1. Stir together sugar, cocoa and salt in medium saucepan; stir in water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Boil and stir 2 minutes. Add milk; stirring constantly, heat to serving temperature. Do Not Boil.
2 Remove from heat; add vanilla. Beat with rotary beater or whisk until foamy. Serve topped with marshmallows or whipped cream, if desired. Five 8-oz. servings.
You will notice that I used a enormous pan, you should use a smaller one. I had planned to double the batch and decided not to at the last minute.
Also, this is a different recipe than the first one I posted...I forgot to buy the chocolate squares and had to go with ingredients that I had on hand.
My secret weapon? Mexican Vanilla smuggled across the border by a friend of my in-laws. They gave all us girls a bottle of it....ITS WONDERFUL.
Hot Chocolate=Happy Kids
Would you like to know what YARM13YOL was saying to Taylor through clinched teeth? It takes 37 muscles to frown, and 22 muscles to smile, so Kaye-Kaye has been right all these years, it's better to smile than frown.
Can you tell she's been hitting the books? She wants to stay on the Basketball team! Gotta get that Science grade up!

The Giant mugs are still packed with the Christmas stuff, that won't be coming out of the closet until December 6. Those little mugs were bought after Christmas and got left out...
