I spent my snow day on Cocoa (pt. 2)

Gingerbread Cocoa

combine:
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/2 cup superfine sugar
  • 1/4 cup Sugar in the Raw (crushed to powder)
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp powdered vanilla
in a mixing bowl.

To enjoy, mix 2-3 Tablespoons into 1 cup of hot water or milk.

Sugar in the Raw comes as rather large crystals and will need to be crushed down somewhat for this recipe to make sure it dissolves completely. It's added for it's molasses content and could be replaced with superfine sugar without sacrificing much taste.

I get my powdered vanilla at Kitchen Krafts in Quakertown.
