- Too thick? Add some milk. If you accidentally overheated the hot chocolate and want it to be thinner, stir in small amounts of milk until you get the consistency desired.

Amazing recipe! Sorry for my earlier complaint. At first, I thought it was not enough hot chocolate, but it was actually the perfect serving size. I'm gonna have to show my family this recipe. It is amazing!

Glad you enjoyed it Emma! And you are right, for a large mug, definitely double the recipe!

Oh my gosh! This is soooo good! It was so simple, easy and delicious. However, I think the serving size was too small. Personally, I like a full cup of hot chocolate, but the serving size for one was only about a half of a coffee mug. If you like a full mug of hot chocolate, then I would suggest doing the 2x serving for one person. Does that make sense? Hopefully it does. Overall, amazing recipe!
