Tonight, I felt I needed to regress into my childhood so I fixed myself something I haven't eaten since I was a little kid - chocolate cream-o-wheat! Here is the recipe for half the quantity I used to eat as a kid in one sitting:
Put a bar (100g) of bittersweet chocolate (or less - I like it superchocolatey) and 4 tablespoons (or less - I like it supersweet)of sugar into 250ml (1/4L) of cold milk. Put on the stove and turn on high. Star mixing continuously. When the milk boils, add a heaping tablespoon (25g or a little more) to the mix. Cut the heat down to Medium and keep mixing continuosuly for about 10 minutes or until it gets the density you like. Pour into a bowl and eat while it is still hot! Smack your lips.

I used to eat chocolate cream of wheat all the time as a kid!! (though mine was not quite so complex... I prepared the CoW according to the box directions, then put it in a bowl, added a tad of milk, and then covered the whole thing with Hershey's Chocolate Syrup. :) mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Tasty!!
"Instant" cream-o-wheat does not do it for me - not sweet and chocolatey enough!
