How to Make Rich Hot Chocolate For One

  1. Heat 1/2 cup of milk (any kind) in a microwave-safe mug for 1-2 minutes, or until steaming hot.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder, a pinch of salt (about 1/8 teaspoon), and 1/2 teaspoon Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute).
  3. Stir vigorously with a spoon to ensure the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and there are no lumps.
  4. If lumps persist, microwave for another 15-30 seconds and stir again. The milk should be very hot to fully dissolve the cocoa.
  5. Once smooth and creamy, enjoy your perfect cup of rich hot chocolate!
