- Once hot, mix well and ladle hot chocolate into cups. Garnish with a layer of mini marshmallows, and whipped cream.

Notes
- Less Sugar - Omit the granulated sugar for a not-so sweet hot chocolate.
- Substitute Milk - For a less creamier and rich hot chocolate you can substitute milk for water.
- Leftovers - Store leftovers in an air tight container for up to 5 days.
- Reheat - Simply poor leftover hot chocolate in a mug and reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until hot.
