December 13th is National Cocoa Day, and there's no better way to embrace the cozy vibes of the season than by sipping on a delicious cup of hot chocolate ☃️

That’s why today we are sharing our favorite hot chocolate recipe and step-by-step instructions. Trust us, you won’t be sorry!

Ingredients:
✨ 2 cups of milk (your choice: whole, skim, almond, etc.)
✨ 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
✨ 2 tablespoons of sugar (adjust to taste)
✨ 1/4 cup of water
✨ A pinch of salt
✨ 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
✨ Whipped cream, marshmallows, or chocolate shavings for topping (optional)

Instructions:
1. In a saucepan, mix cocoa powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add 1/4 cup of water and bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly until it becomes a smooth, thick syrup.
2. Stir in the milk and heat over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Be sure to keep stirring so it doesn’t stick to the pan!
3. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract. Mix well.
4. Pour into your favorite mug, top with whipped cream, marshmallows, or chocolate shavings, and enjoy the warm, chocolatey goodness!
