Make WAY Better Hot Chocolate with Homemade Cocoa Mix



Så denne lille saken hos http://manmadediy.com det må jeg prøve en dag...
"It's really cold today. There's snow in 49 states, and I'm doing everything I can not to turn on the thermostat before the program kicks it on at 3:30. And I need something warm to make it through. Not coffee. Not tea.
I need hot cocoa.
But I can't stand instant cocoa mix. Even the fancy ones are way too water-y. I need to be prepared for days like this.
I need to make my own.

Luckily, it's pretty easy and totally worth the effort. It'll keep nearly forever in the pantry. 
First, a straight-up cocoa and sugar recipe meant to be stirred into hot whole milk. 
Then, a really well-reviewed option from Alton Brown, that adds a pinch of cayenne pepper for complexity. 
And this version from one of my favorite food magazines, Cook's Country, uses white chocolate chips to make it totally worth the calories."
