Italian Hot Chocolate

Stir together in a pan, BEFORE you turn the heat on.

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp. cornstarch

Over low heat whisk in:
1/2 cup water

Continue to stir and add:
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tsp vanilla

Cook and stir constantly over med-low heat for about 10 minutes until it is thick enough to coat a spoon.

Serve and enjoy.

Tips: 2% or whole milk work best. YOu could also kick it up a notch and use 1/2 and 1/2 in place of the milk or part of the milk. We have also made it with Soy Milk or other milk alternatives and it turned out great.
