Our expected high will be 39 degrees. Calls for some hot cocoa, yes? Here's a mixture far healthier than the store-bought variety.
Basic Recipe print here
2 cups powdered milk
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Combine in an air-tight container. To make a single cup, measure 1/4 cup of mixture and combine with hot milk or water.
~ Vanilla enhances the flavor of chocolate, so you could bury a whole vanilla bean in the mixture.
~ Dutch cocoa isn't preferred. The dutching process strips a lot of the healthy flavanols found in chocolate.
~ Add 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon to the mix. Not only is it a great flavor addition but cinnamon also helps to mitigate the impact of the sugar on your blood sugar levels.
Enjoy!
