Here’s a cozy, classic homemade hot cocoa recipe—rich, chocolatey, and way better than the packet stuff ☕🍫
Classic Hot Cocoa (2 mugs)

2 cups milk (any kind works: whole, 2%, almond, oat, etc.)
2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 Tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)

Instructions
In a small saucepan, whisk together cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
Add about 2 Tbsp of the milk and whisk into a smooth paste.
Slowly whisk in the rest of the milk.

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
Pour into mugs and add toppings!
