Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder. I like to use a mixture of regular and dutch process cocoa
  • 1/3-1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • pinch salt

Instructions

  • Combine the sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and water in a sauce pan.
  • Stir over high heat until the mixture begins to boil. Stir to dissolve all the sugar and break up lumps in the cocoa.
  • Add milk, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring frequently, until the temperature reaches ~135F.
  • Serve with marshmallows.
