How to Make Burdick's Famous Hot Cocoa
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
- Before the milk reaches a boil (just below boiling), remove from heat.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, grated chocolate, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper (if using).
- Gradually whisk the cocoa mixture into the warm milk until smooth and well combined. Add sugar and stir to dissolve.
- Return the saucepan to very low heat and gently heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to ensure the chocolate is melted and the cocoa is fully incorporated.
- Pour into mugs and top with mini marshmallows, if desired. Enjoy immediately!
