Comments:
this stuff is insanely gooooood! Its my go to recipe for hot chocolate any time of the year. I'm hopelessly addicted to it. I use demerara sugar with a split vanilla bean i leave in it for flavor. I also use 1 tsp. of hersheys dark choc. powder in it. The recipe is quite simply the best i've found on the internet yet. Kudos and comendations to the lady from "Hudson", where ever that is. YOU ROCK!
