HOT COCOA MIX

Ingredients :
2 2/3 c. nonfat dry milk
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar
2/3 c. cocoa
1 (16 oz.) jar non-dairy creamer
Dash of salt
Optional: 1 (10 oz.) bag sm.
marshmallows

Preparation :
Combine ingredients. For each serving: add 1 cup hot water to
1/3 cup cocoa mix. Stir well until blended. Store remaining mix in
airtight container. (28 servings).

The recipe I use is very close to this one. I freeze mini marshmallows, so when we make a cup of cocoa, we add the frozen marshmallows to the mix before adding the hot water/milk. Helps to cool off the cocoa a bit, and the marshmallows are instantly softened.

Try adding a teeny bit of peppermint extract after you add the water/milk for an extra treat!

Thanks for the tips

I am having a cup right now with the last candy cane from christmas not too much different from yours lol!


My gram used to make this when I was a kid but she said its an old boy scout recipe called Camp Chocolate!

Camp Hot Chocolate

6 c powdered milk
1 lb instant chocolate milk mix (Nestle Quik, for example)
8 oz powdered cream
1 c powdered sugar
Mix and store in airtight container. Use 1/4 cup of mix per cup of hot water.

I just got this one from Cooks Illustrate test kitchen ...

Best-Ever Hot Cocoa Mix

Makes about 20 servings

3 cups nonfat dry milk
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 cups Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon salt

Combine ingredients in large bowl. Working in two batches, pulse ingredients in food processor until chocolate is finely ground. Store in airtight container for up to 3 months. To make hot cocoa, stir 1/3 cup of this mix into 1 cup of hot milk (or water, milk makes it richer). Top with whipped cream or mini marshmallows.

I haven't tried it yet but apparently the white chocolate chips add a real intense flavor.
