    Looks great thanks for sharing!

    Question: would it be ok to add marshmallows? I'm not sure if the extra sugar would be unhealthy.....

    You COULD, but it would taste like absolute *kitten*. It'd be bitter, brownish water. Stick with the original recipe. Hot chocolate should be an all-or-nothing dessert! :tongue:

    Why would you use all that processed stuff? I use actual lard in my hot chocolate for its consistency.

    I made hot cocoa the other night, off the Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder box. for the milk, i used 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 half & half; wow was it rich! I didn't realize until the next day, the half & Half was fat free!!!! I was amazed, because normally I can tell when something is made full-fat or not, and I had no idea until my husband pointed out that the creamer was fat free. Go figure!

    Add just a smidge of salt at the end. Seriously, so good.

    As an alternative, I use whole milk instead of the cream (and I add brown sugar).

    You can also add liquor at the end as well.

    YUM!

    Bulkers? I'm lactose intolerant so this recipe is pretty much a cleanse for me. Sounds much tastier than green juice or lemon cranberry water or whatever the kids are cleansing with now adays. I'm in.

    If you only have a little of it, who cares if it's over your calorie allowance for a snack? Work out more or quit whining. Sounds good to me.

    No no no.... You have to use Abuelita! So fricking good! But seriously... I love hot chocolate! So I found a very special (store brand) of coffee that tastes like it. I feel like I'm getting a special treat every morning.

    lol did you say 12 candy bars???

    BETTER IDEA

    Take your fav chocolate protein mix and add to hot water....My protein tastes just like hot chocolate I drink it all the time :-)

    its just been so long since you had chocolate melted into whole milk or cream that you forgot what it tastes like. Trust me. Protein powder tastes ok (mine is pretty decent) but it doesn't compare to a chocolate bar melted in half and half.
