I always thought hot chocolate was suppose to be the consistency of water only hot.   This hot chocolate is the got to be the best and easiest to make.  Man, is it creamy.  I must say this is delicious and it is absolutely a 10 out of 10.  Here is the recipe

Ingredients

          300 ml  (1 1/4 cup) milk.  Whole or skimmed  ( I used skimmed)
          2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
          1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
          1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
          Toppings:  (Optional) whipped cream, marshmallows, chocolate chips 

Instructions

          1. Warm milk in the microwave, about 1 1/2 minutes

          2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the dry ingredients

          3. Add 60 ml ( 2 oz) of milk and whisk until well combined and smooth

          4. Add the remaining milk and whisk well

          5. Place the sauce pan on medium heat and whisk constantly or until the mixture
              starts to boil and it reaches the desired thickness.  You can usually tell by the sound
             of the  liquid just before it thickens.

          6. Remove from heat and pour into two mugs

          7. Top with whipped cream and other desired toppings.

          8. Sit back and enjoy.

Since there are only 116 calories per serving, it is easy to drink the whole mixture in a large mug.

I am glad I found this recipe on http://aseasyasapplpie.com/italian-hot-chocolate

I thought about including a picture of the mixture but it did not do it justice.   Y'all will have to try this.  It is that good.  This could be my new addiction.
