I love this. It is very sweet though, so you can cut back on the condensed milk and then add to taste.

VERY, VERY good and very soothing! I did, however, add a bit more milk (sub. for water) than called for. I found the overall recipe a little too sweet for my taste with the regular 6 1/2 cups of milk - so I added close to 8. I found that was the right balance - BUT, that is/was just personal opinion. I served some to my hubby after he got back from ice fishing and he RAVED about it. Great recipe, will make again for sure!!

My husband and sons loved this recipe. We will never buy powdered hot chocolate again!

Very good. I used whole milk as well instead of water. Pretty sweet, so maybe next time I will used part whole milk and part 2%. Kids LOVED it.

Excellent hot chocolate.. I made it with whole milk, no water. Pretty sweet so I didn't add any marshmellows but it was exactly what I was looking for on this Christmas evening! Thank you!

Very good. I put it all together the night before then put it in a crockpot for my daughter's class. Simmered all day and was ready and creamy for the party. I used water, next time will probably use milk. Thanks. UPDATE: Used 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 water - just delicious. Recommend the substitute.

I made this as written but used whole milk instead of water. It was really good, I loved it! Hubby thought it was too 'dark chocolate' tasting (he really hates dark chocolate), but I thought it was fabulous!

Great recipe, great taste. Much more substantial than expected with all the water so cut the last 1/2 cup with great result. Can hardly imagine how thick this is with milk!

Our family enjoyed this, particularly my 3 year-old son. I set up a 'make your own hot chocolate bar' with toppings like whipped cream, marshmallows and peppermint sprinkles; he loved it! I used skim milk in place of the water and also added 1/2 of a Ghirardelli semi-sweet baking bar for a litte more richness. Wonderful - I will keep and use this recipe forever!
