If your like me, nothing says winter like a big cup of hot chocolate next to the fire place. While playing in the snow and having snowball fights are fun, sharing a cup of hot chocolate afterward can be a wonderful tradition to start with your kids.
Before you head out to play, make up this quick little recipe and put it in your crock pot on high. Then your cocoa will be hot and ready when you are.
Cook Time: 2-3 hours
Ingredients:
* 3 cups dry milk powder
* 1 cup powdered sugar
* 3/4 cup cocoa powder
* 1/2 cup brown sugar
* 1/2 tsp. sea salt
* 2 tsp. vanilla extract
* 1/2 cup chocolate syrup
* 1/2 cup powdered nondairy creamer
* 7 cups water

Preparation:
Combine all ingredients except for the water in a 4 quart slow cooker and stir well to combine. Then gradually add water, stirring constantly with a wire whisk. Cover slow cooker and cook on low for 2-3 hours. Stir before serving. This makes about 10 cups, or enough for everyone to have seconds.

It's a cold day here, we will have to try it. Do you think I could use Splenda in place of the brown sugar?
Oh this looks just like the hot cocoa that my grandma used to make us. Thanks for the recipe!
