    1/4 cup cocoa, a little less

    1/4 cup corn starch
    1/4 tsp salt
    2 cups milk (nutritional value is 2% milk)

    2 tsp vanilla -- add at the end
    2 cups marshmallows - optional

Directions

Combine eggs and milk in mixing bowl. Add dry ingredients and stir thoroughly with mixer (don't beat). Move into at least a 2-qt stovetop pan.
