I had to go read the whole milk article. I'm not sold. I'll have to think on that. But the hot chocolate sounds lovely and I'm going to go make it right now (but with 2% since that is what I have). Thanks for sharing! OK… I had to go read the whole milk article. I’m not sold. I’ll have to think on that.

I think I'll make a small batch for my husband who drinks hot cocoa like it's water. :D Did you know that whole milk has less sodium than the 2% or less milks?

I add a little vanilla extract, which gives it a great flavor, the chocolate is more enhanced. I make this too!

And you know, the powder mix tastes NOTHING like REAL hot cocoa; it's like the difference between coffee and tea. And we make our hot cocoa by putting a cup of whole milk in the microwave. I put the sugar and cocoa in the milk, and stir VERY well afterward. So simple. The misconception is that cooking REAL FOOD is so hard, so time-consuming. This is a good example of how getting rid of the chemicals in your diet is no harder. I bet you could even pre-mix the sugar and cocoa in its own container, and just put it in as needed, saving another small step. I don’t buy that powder/faky stuff anymore either!
