Directions
Bring 4 cups whole or low-fat milk to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. Mix 3/4 cup sugar, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 3 to 4 ounces finely chopped bittersweet chocolate in a bowl, then whisk into the milk. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring, until the chocolate melts and the cocoa is thick, about 2 minutes. Divide among 4 mugs and garnish each with homemade marshmallows (see below) or whipped cream.

Perfect for adults, my kids weren't too impressed I think there was too much dark chocolate, and I only used 2 ounces instead of 3-4. I thought it was awesome though and will make it again, maybe tweak the recipe so my kids will drink it this time!

This was delicious! I used 1/2 cup of sugar because I like things a little less sweet. My 6 year old thought it was the best!
