President's Hot Chocolate

hot chocolate with cream and vanillaHot chocolate that's good enough for the White House, with both milk and light cream. No fuss with melted chocolate, since it's made with cocoa powder. Give it a whisk for a foamy touch.

  • 6 tbs unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 6 tbs sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 1/2 cups light cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • Cinnamon, whipped cream and orange zest

Add sugar and cocoa to milk and heat in a saucepan until dissolved. Add the cream, cinnamon and vanilla. Heat until almost boiling. Mix well and serve, topped with whipped cream and a bit of orange zest.

Serves 6.
