- Yield: 1 serving 1x
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 cup 2% milk
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon brewed coffee
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Small pinch of salt
- In a small pot, add your cocoa powder, sugar, and water
- Heat over medium heat, whisking until the mixture is simmering and thoroughly combined
- Add your milk, peanut butter, salt, coffee, and vanilla
- Whisk until everything is completely combined (it might need to heat up a bit before the peanut butter totally mixes in)
- You may want to run a spoon or rubber spatula along the inner edge of the pan in case any of the cocoa/sugar mixture is stuck in there where your whisk can’t reach
- Heat until hot and almost simmering, but don’t let the milk simmer too hard or boil! It will scorch and mess up the flavor
- Optional toppings: whipped cream or marshmallows
