Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a small mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder and granulated sugar. Mix well until they are thoroughly blended.

  2. 2

    Heat the Milk

    In a saucepan, pour in the whole milk and heat it over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching, until the milk is hot but not boiling.

  3. 3

    Mix in Cocoa and Sugar

    Once the milk is hot, reduce the heat to low and gradually whisk in the cocoa powder and sugar mixture. Continue to whisk until the cocoa and sugar are completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

  4. 4

    Add Vanilla Extract

    Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.

Serving

  1. 5

  2. 6

    Enjoy!

    Serve warm or chilled according to preference. Stir well before drinking, and enjoy your delicious chocolate milk!
