Death By Hot Chocolate

This was sent to me by my daughter, Sara.

It's pretty basic but the chocolate milk makes it creamy and extra chocolaty and the whip topping makes it extra good. You should try it, yum!

Ingredients (per mug)

1 packet of your favorite hot chocolate mix (I like the ones with the little marshmallows)
1/2 cup chocolate milk (cold, that way it cools off the drink a little and you can enjoy it that much sooner)
3/4 c water (almost but not quite boiling)
1/4 c cool whip (the stuff in the tub, not the can)

Once your water is heated, put your hot chocolate mix into your favorite mug, saving about a teaspoon for later. Poor the chocolate milk (cold) into the mug and whisk (I like to hold it between my hands and rub them together, it spins faster and makes it really frothy). Because the milk is cold the mix may not completely dissolve but that's fine, it will when you add the hot water. Add about 1/2 a cup of the hot water and continue whisking (This way you will not splash when you whisk because the cup is too full). Once the top is frothy add the remaining water and whisk gently just to combine.

Take the 1/4 cup of cool whip in a bowl and add most of the remaining hot chocolate mix (leaving a small amount to sprinkle over the top of your drink when finished). Fold the mix into the cool whip until blended. Add as much as you like to your drink. Sprinkle the top with the remaining mix and enjoy...

ENJOY!
