I have been making this recipe for ages now and when I first found it, it was on the side of Hershey's Cocoa Tin. As a matter of fact, my mother used to make this for my sister and me in Cuba, when we weren't even so little. Found this on hershey's web site.

I was craving hot chocolate, and we didn't have any packets, so I made it the real way....wow! I may never go back again! Used honey in place of sugar. Thanks for sharing!

    My Mom made this for me when I was growing up. I remember she got the recipe off the Hershey's Cocoa package. This brought back memories of home! Made for the Comfort Cafe 2009.

    I have used this recipe for many, many years, and made it again last night for the first time in ages. Its still as good as ever. I used Hood's carb countdown milk in it, and it turned out so good.
