Hot Chocolate

My boys drink a lot of hot cocoa and they're pretty happy with the stuff they can scoop into their mugs and add hot water. Tonight, however, we had no hot cocoa mix so I made some from scratch.

Of course making cocoa isn't difficult but it's more than my boys would want to do every night. The boys thought this was "fancy". Whisking milk, cocoa, sugar and a bit of cinnamon together in a saucepan made a yummy treat. It would probably have been better with whole milk but we rarely have that in the house.
