Homemade Hot Cocoa Mix
by Michelle Jones

Whether you are looking for an inexpensive gift to give everyone this year, or just have a few extra people on your list, this is a great gift idea!

10 1/2 cups nonfat dry milk powder
6 ounces non-dairy creamer
1-pound Nestlé's Quick Chocolate Milk Mix
1/3 cup Sugar

In a large mixing bowl combine all the ingredients listed above and blend well. Pour cocoa mix into glass canning jars and top with a pretty square piece of fabric. For each jar, cut a 24-inch piece of red satin ribbon. Secure the fabric onto the top of the lid by tying the ribbon into a bow around the rim of the jar.

For the label include these instructions:

Combine ¼ cup Home Made Cocoa Mix and ¾ cup boiling water into cup, stir to blend, and enjoy!

This makes such a great gift, be sure to keep some for your family too!
