cocoa

This was the view outside my kitchen window yesterday morning. And here's the cocoa recipe a few of you have asked for:

Snowy Day Cocoa

1/3 c sugar
2 squares unsweetened chocolate
dash salt
4 c milk
1 TBSP butter
1 tsp vanilla
8 large marshmallows
__________

In a large saucepan, combine sugar, chocolate, salt, milk and butter; bring to a boil.

Add vanilla and marshmallows. Heat until marshmallows melt.

Divide between 4 mugs and top with more marshmallows if desired.

If you don't have unsweetened chocolate squares, you can substitute 1-2 TBSP unsweetened cocoa and 1/4 c hot water.

Enjoy!
