Prep:15min

By simply toasting the milk powder before adding it to the hot cocoa mix, we can capture a wide array of flavors, including caramel, toffee, and malt. Basically, one extra step creates the best cup of hot chocolate ever. Just trust me. And don't forget the homemade marshmallows...Note: If, like me, you only have kosher salt, simply blend a few tablespoons to a fine dust in a spice grinder. This recipe first appeared in Season 1 of Good Eats: Reloaded.
