Did you know that there actually is a difference between hot cocoa and hot chocolate? Hot cocoa is made using cocoa powder (which no longer contains the cocoa butter), whereas hot chocolate is made from melting chocolate (like a chocolate bar) in milk. I thought it was interesting, since the terms are often used interchangeably. Anywho, without further ado...
