    It is the middle of a hot summer, and I'm craving hot cocoa.
    Does anyone else have this dilemma?

    Can I use milk instead of melk?

    When I was a kid 65 years ago, my little bro and I had a paper route. We served about a quarter of our smallish town, so it was a big route everyday, and we often worked into the night during the winter. As part of the job, we had to get up about 4 a.m. every Sunday and deliver the gargantuan version of the Sunday Register and Tribune. Each copy ran over a pound typically, so we were lugging around a lot of weight. Sometimes in winter, if it was particularly cold, my dad would get up early and help us. By cold, I mean -50 to -75 degrees below zero F with windchill on top of that. It took several hours to complete the route, and as a treat after we got home, my mom would often make us fresh hot chocolate and toast and butter with apple jelly. For some reason, that is one of those Heavenly combos. Believe me, you've not tasted delicious hot chocolate until after delivering hundreds of copies of the Sunday Register and Tribune for several hours in early morning darkness in -75 degree below zero weather. I don't think she ever had those cute holiday decorations sitting next to the cocoa cups on the table though.

    When I got home from work my mama was getting ready to make this very recipe. I told her to keep the half & half in the recipe, and instead of whole milk she used unsweetened almond milk. She didn’t put all the sugar as we tend to use a tad less of any sweetener. We also used the cocoa powder we had on hand which was a delicious black cocoa powder I got from Amazon. It was the *BEST* fresh hot cocoa I ever had!!!!! Thanks for the great idea and for sharing. 😄

    I am a hot chocolate snob, I don't drink coffee and am very picky about places that don't make as good hot chocolate as they do there coffee. Where I live we have a company that makes one of the best hot chocolates I have had. My 7 year old son and I made this today and it tasted just like that hot chocolate. This was absolutely fantastic. Thank you!!! Now even during quarantine we can have our favorite hot chocolate at home.

    When you're mixing in your powdered ingredients "really well" you might want to pay attention to the big blob stuck in your mug opposite the handle. That being said...
    A thermos of hot cocoa always accompanied us onto the mountain when my parents used to take us up to find the perfect Christmas tree (I truly pity people who have only had "farmed" trees from those depressing lots in their lives - such a delightful adventure was the perfect way to begin the Christmas festivities!) and hot cocoa always brings a smile to my face.
