Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup chocolate drink powder
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup boiling hot water
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 cup whole milk powder
  • 1 litre cold water (alternatively you could use 1 litre of milk and omit the whole milk powder)

Instructions

  • Place the drinking chocolate, sugar, vanilla and boiling water into a large sauce pan and simmer over a low heat.
  • When the mixture begins to boil, take it off the heat and add the water and whole milk powder. Mix well and place back on the heat.
    (If you are using pouring milk instead of the milk powder - simply pour into the chocolate mixture and mix well).
  • Watch the pot, stirring often to avoid the mixture burning.
  • When the hot chocolate begins a rolling boil, remove from the heat and pour into individual cups, or an insulated flask to take on an adventure.
