With all the rain here and recovering that Miss Pear is doing, we are drinking lots of hot chocolate. But the one thing I loathe is lumpy hot chocolate.
I have finally discovered how to get smooth hot chocolate - if you already knew this, why didn't you tell me?
First, put the mix in the bottom of your cup and add just enough boiling water to make a thin paste, mixing with a FORK. Mix until all the lumps are gone. Add more boiling water until your cup is half full, mix again. Then, either slowly add the rest of your boiling water for hot chocolate (be sure to add a splash of milk at the end!) or milk for warm chocolate mixing continually.
Voila, smooth chocolate.
What is your favorite hot chocolate? Do you like to buy mix or make your own? (I am always on the hunt for a new recipe!)

I always use warm milk and never have lumps...I wonder if it's the milk?
I make the recipe on the back of the Hershey's container with a bit less sugar:
1/3 cup Hershey's cocoa powder
1/3 cup sugar
dash of salt
1/3 cup of water
1/2 cap of vanilla
milk
Most of it I do by eye. Put the first four in together and boil while stirring for three minutes. Put in the vanilla and milk until desired color and warm through without boiling.
