OLD-FASHIONED HOT CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• IF USING CHOCOLATE:.
• Grate chocolate (manually or in food processor fitted with steel blades). Add in corn starch, sugar, and salt.
• IF USING COCOA:.
• Mix solid ingredients, butter, and a little warmed milk to make a smooth paste; add remaining milk.
• In a one-quart, heavy-bottomed, non-aluminum saucepan, heat milk over medium low heat, stirring often with small whisk, until it is steaming hot. Carefully add chocolate mixture.
• Continue cooking mixture, stirring almost constantly with whisk and scraping bottom and sides of pot with heat resistant spatula frequently. Mixture will steam for several (15-20) minutes before coming to a boil, and will thicken slightly.
• When mixture boils, continue cooking and stirring for only 30 to 45 seconds.
• Remove from heat; whisk in vanilla, sugar (as much as you want) and any optional ingredients.
• TO SERVE:.
• Divide among small 4 cups or mugs, and mix 1 tablespoon of skim milk in each mug to achieve desired consistency; you may need to warm in microwave once skim is added.
