Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect warm-up Just had a lot of colder than usual days and this was the perfect warm me up drink. Don't really care for the flavor of sugar free hot cocoa packets but am diabetic. Loved this!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hot chocolate Making my winter! I cannot drink coffee so I was looking for something hot while it was snowing. This hit the spot.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to make, comforting taste. It's cold here at night and nothing warms you like hot chocolate so I tried this version tonight. It could hardly be easier to make. There is no odd taste, no aftertaste. I did leave out the cinnamon and I used dark cocoa to get a rich taste.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Rich and Chocolaty I love anything chocolate and I'm trying to cut down on sugar so I tried this recipe using a dark coco powder. Next time I would use regular cocoa instead.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Nice Hot Chocolate We did try it last week and it was very nice, but it was not as sweet as I expected.
