rainy day at the beach


1T darkest, best cocoa available
1T granulated sugar (or vanilla bean simple syrup)
1T butter
melt in microwave; stir together
(or use chocolate chips rather than three ingredients above)

Stir together in separate dish:
2 oz heavy cream
2 oz 2% milk (whatever you have; the richer the better)
microwave just below boiling point

stir chocolate mixture into warm milk
add touch of vanilla extract
whisk to mix well

enjoy
(yield 1 small, quite rich glass of hot chocolate)

reading "A Movable Feast" and watching the rain...
