1
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a small bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt until well combined. This will help prevent clumps in your chocolate milk.
2
Heat the Milk
In a small saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent it from scorching. Heat until it is warm but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
3
Mix in Cocoa Mixture
Once the milk is warm, gradually add the cocoa mixture to the milk while whisking continuously. This will help to dissolve the cocoa and sugar into the milk, creating a smooth chocolate milk.
4
Add Vanilla
Stir in the vanilla extract and continue to whisk until fully blended. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding more sugar if desired.
5
Serve
Pour the chocolate milk into a glass. If desired, top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings for an extra indulgent treat.
