  • 1/2 cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar (or to taste)
  • 1/2 cup (85g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chunks (or mini chocolate chips)

How to Make Hot Cocoa (Per Serving):

  1. Combine and Heat:

    • Add 1/4 cup of the hot cocoa mix to a mug. Pour in 1 cup (240ml) of hot milk or water, depending on your preference. Stir well until the mix and chocolate chunks are fully melted and combined.
  2. Top and Enjoy:

    • Top with whipped cream, marshmallows, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for an extra treat.

Tips and Variations:

  • Rich and Creamy: For an ultra-creamy hot cocoa, use whole milk or half-and-half.
