Things that make you go mmm... This is the makings of the hot chocolate of the gods. Plus, this will make you enough for the month--or the week if you dare to share. After all, it is a bonified, modified "Grandma's Secret Hot Chocolate Recipe." Dare you take the time to make such a sinfully sweet treat? Yes, yes you do. 
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla
(x cups whole milk)
1. In a medium size pot, wisk together cocoa, sugar, salt, vanilla, and 2 cups water.
2. Place on medium-high heat and bring to simmer.
3. Wisk every 30 seconds for about 5 minutes, or until mixture thickens to a syrup. Adjust heat as needed to avoid boiling.
4. Pour into sealed container. (Store in fridge for up to 1 month.)
5. Stir in about 2 tablespoons syrup per cup whole milk. Microwave 1-2 minutes and stir.
* Suggestions: Serve hot chocolate with marshmallows, whip cream, and chocolate pieces. Cream is highly recommended.
