This, my friends, is hot chocolate for the strong of heart. It ain't no Swiss Miss. A combination of cocoa powder, good thick milk, and a spoonful of sugar, this hot chocolate satisfies your deepest of cocoa cravings. A new favorite evening drink of Joe and I's, it is a must share.

Take about a tblsp and a half of cocoa powder and just enough milk and combine it in a small cooking pan. With the burner on about medium flame stir your cocoa and milk until you begin forming a paste-like consistency. Slowly begin adding milk, little bits at a time, giving the paste a chance to dilute itself. Keep adding milk in small increments until you have about two teacups worth of hot chocolate. Add as much sugar as you'd like for your own personal tasting. Joe and I like about a tblsp in our concoction. Pour into small teacups, and enjoy! For added delight.....whip up some of your favorite heavy cream into a fluffy treat and add a dollop of it to your steamy treat. :-)
