Most folks think you will find the best hot chocolate in Maine, Vermont, North Dakota, Wisconsin and other snow belt states.
Maybe so, but do not overlook Louisiana. Specifically, South Louisiana, where food and drink are taken very seriously.
My favorite hot chocolate recipe belongs to Amanda, a university administrator and mother who grew up in the Lafayette area. Here it is.
Put ten cups of dry powdered milk in a large bowl.
Add two and a half cups of Coffee-Mate or an equivalent product.
Fold in eighteen ounces of cocoa mix. Amanda uses Nestle's.
Finally, dump in a cup and a quarter of powdered sugar and mix all the ingredients together thoroughly.
When the mixture is completed, add two heaping teaspoons to a cup of hot water to try it, and add a bit more of any ingredient to suit your taste. It is great as is, but I generally add a bit more cocoa.
