Default Rec : Hot Fudge

Â* This is awesome over some vanilla ice cream . In a straight sided 12
oz coffee cup mix a half cup or so of regular sugar , a heaping teaspoon
of cocoa , and a half tbsp of butter , a couple of drops of vanilla and
enough water to make a paste just a little thinner than toothpaste .
Nuke for about a minute and 15 , stirring frequently - it WILL boil over
if you don't watch it ! When it's smooth and all the sugar has dissolved
it's ready . If you got the mix right it will stiffen to a thick creamy
consistency when it his the ice cream . Gooey and delicious !

Leave out the butter (and vanilla if you want to), add hot milk and you've
got hot chocolate to drink.

The real "duh" here would be spending $8 on something that
consistently comes in last place in taste tests, wouldn't arrive for
at least 4 days, based on your advice <laugh>, and that I wouldn't
use for another 15 years? No, I think I'll stick to making an even
better product from real sugar, real vanilla, fresh milk, and
without preservatives at home and for a mere $.20 whenever that urge
strikes.

You were born with TIAD.

I don't drink hot drinks. I even put ice in my cold chocolate milk
(gets too warm for em after you stir in the syrup or powder). I
don't even drink coffee except for once every 10 years or so (March
18th 2016 was the last time) and I feel really stupid paying $5 for
a plastic cup that's 65% ice. And if I had cocoa mix on hand I could
just make real chocolate milk (with milk) - no need to fake it with
the other two ingredients which I'd never have on hand.

So, thank you, but not my cup of tea (and no hot tea since 1981)

I'm not sure that's available here, might be, but I've never looked for
it. But a can of dry cocoa powder will last until the Second Coming.

The Expiration Date is when retailers should take it off the for sale rack, NOT meaning it's unfit to eat. Just not guaranteed by the maker to be optimally fresh for sale!
