Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 ½ cups cold water

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 6 cups whole milk

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Whisk cold water, sugar, cocoa powder, flour, cinnamon, cloves, and salt in a saucepan until smooth. Place over low heat; bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened and hot, about 4 minutes. Stir in milk; heat until hot chocolate just forms bubbles around the edge. Mix vanilla extract into hot chocolate. Blend until smooth with an immersion blender to make the drink slightly frothy.
