  1. I made this for hubby and Little Miss and they both enjoyed it. (I used lactose free milk for Little Miss.) Hubby said it had lots of body and the texture was good. I topped it with whipped cream instead of milk and dusted it with chocolate powder. It was a yummy treat for our cold winter. Thank you djmastermum
     
  2. It was great for today's rainy and damp day! I just love the simplicity of this hot chocolate.
     
  3. Mmmm... I'm sipping this as I type. Nice thickness without being overpowering. I'll make this again thanks!
     
  4. This was wonderful. I really enjoyed this thick and chocolately drink. I did top it with whipped cream for a truly decadent treat. It was so quick and easy to make, my neighbor & I enjoyed the flavor and texture very much. A perfect treat for the rainy day we had. One of the nicest hot chocolates that I have tried. Thank you so much for sharing.
     
  5. Yummy:) A nice thick chocolate drink without the calories. I found this amount made 3cups, guess they were big mugs LOL I have made this quite a few times already as a bedtime drink. I make it in my non stick milk pan but think it could also be made in a jug in the microwave. If you wanted to be really decadent you could top with some whipped cream :) A 'keeper' for us :)
