Hot chocolate mixes often disappoint. We wanted a thick, chocolaty, indulgent drink.

Before You Begin
This recipe can easily be halved or doubled. Our preferred unsweetened chocolate is Hershey’s Unsweetened Baking Bar. Both natural and Dutch-processed cocoa will work in this recipe. Our favorite natural cocoa powder is Hershey’s Natural Cocoa Unsweetened; our favorite Dutch-processed cocoa powder is Droste Cocoa. For one serving of hot chocolate, heat 1 cup of whole, 2 percent low-fat, or 1 percent low-fat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it starts to steam and bubbles appear around the edge of the saucepan. Add 1/4 cup of hot chocolate mix and continue to heat, whisking constantly, until simmering, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Pour the hot chocolate into a mug and serve.
