Favorite Hot Chocolate

This hot chocolate takes a bit more effort than the "just add powder" kind but is so worth it! Great to drink on a cold winter night in front of the fire!

INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup Hershey's Cocoa
Dash salt
Pinch Pensey's Cinnamon
1/3 cup hot water
4 cups milk
3/4 tsp vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS
Mix sugar, cocoa, salt, and cinnamon in a sauce pan; stir in water.  Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture boils; boil and stir 3 minutes. Stir in milk and heat. DO NOT BOIL. Remove from heat; add vanilla.  Pour into mugs and add a large tablespoon whipped cream; sprinkle with cocoa or nutmeg to garnish!
