1-2-3 Cocoa

1 tablespoon white sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons water
pinch of salt
1 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla

1. Mix the sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and water.  Bring up to a boil on medium heat.
2. Stir for one minute (it'll start to look a little fudgy).
3. Stir in the milk and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts steaming and is as hot as you want it.  (Don't boil it!)
4. Stir in vanilla.

This is my version of the two cocoa recipes on the Hershey's Cocoa Powder container.  I like it a little less sweet and more cocoa-y, so you could add sugar if you want.  This is perfect for after a walk in the snow!
