CHOCOLATE DRINK

CHOCOLATE DRINK

PROCEEDED WITH CAUTION:   If you are a hard core chocolate drinker do not read any further.  You might start to cry, because were talking healthy.  But to save your sanity scroll down until you see the evil version.

Note: There are times to be healthy and believe me there are times to splurge.  When I want an evil cup of deadliness I don't hold back.  But the key is not to do it all the time.

And please keep in mind you can change this up any way you would like.  Make it your own.  I'm just trying to keep the calories down and still get the chocolate tastes.

At the bottom is the evil version of chocolate milk hot or cold.

NOTE:  All you have to do is chill the hot chocolate to get a cold drink. It's that easy.

INGREDIENTS:

2 Table spoons of Coco Powder.
1 Table spoon of Sugar
4 Table spoons of water. 

Heat water and sugar to boil add coco powder and turn off burner stir. Add a bit more water if need.   Cool mixture.  Next add about two table spoons worth of mixture to a glass, add ice and more water and stir.  If the mixture is not chocolaty enough for you try adding another table spoon of chocolate of adding less water.  It took me a while to find the right mixture.  But in the long run it is worth it and your getting the chocolaty fix and drinking your water to boot.


EVIL VERSION:

HOT OR COLD  CHOCOLATE:
1 cup of whole milk
1 cup of heavy whipping cream.
2  Tablespoons of good quality chocolate powder.
Tiny Marsh mellows.
3 Three Table spoons sugar.
1 Teaspoon of cinnamon.
1/2  Teaspoon of Vanilla extract.  Home made is the best.
Add a peppermint stick for garnish.
Put the both milks into a pot on the stove on High. Add vanilla, chocolate powder, sugar and cinnamon.   Stir it with a whisk,  it will take some time.  Watch for little bubbles around the edges of the milk, when they start to foam and roll.  As soon as you start to see it boil a little turn it off.
Yummy
If their is left overs put in the refrigerator and cover. Then you'll have cold chocolate milk for late.  


YUM!!!!
