Clump-Free Cocoa

Today's lunch with the small people consisted of cream of mushroom soup, crispy garlic toast sticks, and Clump-Free Cocoa.

For each serving, put about two tablespoons of Nesquik or other chocolate drink mix in the bottom of a teacup.  I prefer Nesquik because it dissolves readily and has a little less sugar than other brands.  You can buy it in bulk for reasonable prices.  Pour scalding water into the cup, about six ounces worth.  I keep a tea kettle on the stove with water all the time for this and other purposes.  Top up the cup with heavy cream, half-and-half, or a little of both.  You could use milk, but I don't.  Whisk briefly, and serve immediately.

My kids love this.  It is better than the cheap cocoa packets, and far less expensive than the "gourmet" ones.
