Thanksgiving is almost here – are you ready?? I feel so blessed that I have all of my family nearby, so I don’t have to worry about hosting a whole Thanksgiving dinner. All I have to do is bring some sweet potatoes and pie! So what do you do for the host of your Thanksgiving meal? Gifts!! And of course, since this is such a food centered holiday, a foodie gift is the answer!
I chose to make hot chocolate – super easy, fast, and affordable to put together. And you can make your own cute tags, or do what I did and use the ones from Blonde Designs (a new favorite website!)
Hot Cocoa Mix
serves 10
2 cups dry milk
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/3 cup powdered non-dairy creamer
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mix all ingredients together well. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
When ready to make, add 3-4 tablespoons of the mix to about 3/4 cup of hot water or milk. Stir and enjoy!
I’ve never made hot cocoa mix b/c one that I recieved was so horrible, I thought a good one (from homemade) was not possible. The powdered milk really overpowered the chocolate flavor and it was awful. Do you think this one has a good flavor and how does it compare to instant store-bought mixes? Just curious! Thanks!
I’m pretty sure this is what everyone on my list is getting for Christmas!
