Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Pour the 4 cups of milk into a medium-sized saucepan.

- Increase the heat slightly and warm the hot chocolate to your desired drinking temperature. Stir occasionally to ensure even heating. Do not let it boil.

- Pour the hot chocolate into mugs.
- You can garnish with whipped cream, a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, or a cinnamon stick for an extra touch.

Tips:
- For a thicker and richer hot chocolate, you can substitute half of the milk with heavy cream.
- If you prefer a stronger cinnamon flavor, you can add a pinch of ground cinnamon to the milk before heating.
- Top the hot chocolate with whipped cream or marshmallows for an extra special treat.
- You can use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate for a more intense chocolate flavor.
- If you want to make it dairy-free, substitute the milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any other plant-based milk.
