DESCRIPTION
Misc. -- Cocoa for 48

SUMMARY
Yield 0 File under Holiday & Party Recipes

INSTRUCTIONS
A mix you can prepare in advance and have around for hot cocoa. I remember that this mix was always around growing up so we could always enjoy hot cocoa.

The quantity of "48" is based on the fact that my mother made this mix for our chuch choir after we went door-to-door caroling in the neighborhood -- and there were usually around "48" people present!

(How times have changed)

1 & 3/4 cups cocoa
4 & 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups water

Combine all ingredients, heat and whisk until boiling and cocoa is blended in. Cool and store in fridge (will keep for weeks I'm sure).

To make the cocoa, heat 3 gallons of milk (skim or even powdered milk will work). Combine syrup with the 3 gallons of milk, heat until very hot, but not boiling. Serve.

(You can mix the syrup with lesser quantities for family. Just mix to taste.)
