For this Christmas (and a couple years ago) I am making Hot Cocoa Mix for some of my gifts. It is relatively easy, you can get creative with the presentation, and accompany it with a fun mug! Here is the mix I am making this year. I have not made it before, but I'm sure it will be tasty, at least I hope!
- 2 cups nonfat dry milk
- 1 cup sugar1/2 cup cocoa
- 1/2 cup non-dairy creamer
- 1 dash of salt
- miniature marshmallows, optional
Combine ingredients and mix well.
Store in an airtight container. Yield 4 cups mix
To Make Cocoa:
Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of mix to your favorite mug and fill with boiling water. Stir to blend. Add some marshmallows or cream.
