Hot chocolate

Hot Chocolate

"I went to Gibson's store; got a pound of chocolate and he charged 37 1-2 cents for it; he had agreed in Winter Quarters to let me have it at 20 cents. Apology Lowers No Prices"
Hot chocolate has often been a comfort food to me.  Not only does the chocolate and sugar give you a boost, the warmth fills your insides.  Surprising to some both hot chocolate and coffee were common staples on the Mormon western migration.  I imagine most mornings on the plains were a bit brisk and something warm would help you get started.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 Cups Powdered Milk
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 1/2 cup a mix of white and dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 10 cups water

Directions

Using a food processor mix all all ingredients until you have a fine powder. Heat water to a boil. In a large container stir to combine.
