SO HOW'D IT GO?

I tried this twice. Once with soy milk, once with rice milk. The soy milk version was better as it was creamier. Very good and easy recipe. Thanks!

This was soo delicious! To make it not as rich, I used 1 tbsp of cocoa and 1 tbsp of raw sugar and 1/2 milk, 1/2 water. And it's SO rich and delicious and only 100 calories!! ;D

this made me throw up.

What kind of review is that?  Geez, if you didn't like the way the hot cocoa turned out could you at least be mature enough to articulate what the problem was instead of your reaction? 

you're right, i should have said - i think i got sick because it seemed very thick to me - it was very good but next time i make it i will put more milk and less cocoa. i also forgot to add cinnamon. sorry

This was awesome!  I used rice milk instead of soy milk (not a soy milk fan at all!).  I think next time I'll use less cocoa... but over all it was very good!  Thanks for the recipe!

This was awesome. I used dark chocolate cocoa instead of the regular and it came out yummy. Warms you up on a chilly morning  :)

I just finished my cup -- near the end of the cup, there was an icky film... not appetising!

MMM!!! This sure is good!  My vanilla poured quicker than I expected, so I probably ended up with about triple (at least) the amount... and I also added some peppermint oil.  Yum! Yum! Yum!

I cooked mine with crushed up dried red chilis, then strained afterward. Deee-lish!  ;D ;D

Incredible, and it only took around 5 minutes. I love it!

Looks and sounds great! My cheap version of hot chocolate is a mixture of carob chips, soy milk, and a little bit of water. A little bit of carob goes a long way too. But I bet this recipe is much richer than mine. WIll definitely try it sometime
