Mixing up Cocoa

December 17, 2010 By radmegan 6 Comments

Hot Cocoa with Homemade Marshmallow
One year my mom gave everyone she knew hot cocoa for Christmas. You might wrinkle up your nose at a gift that seems so… basic, but that cocoa was so rich, creamy, full-bodied, and darn-good that only mutterings were about how she’s such a thoughtful gift-giver. And with that, I give you the recipe! 


Mom's Cocoa Mix
10 1/2 cups dry milk
1 lb. Nestle Quick
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
6 oz. coffee creamer

Fill cup 3/4 full with mix and add hot water. 
Serves: LOTS!
Ready for labels, and then GIFTING!
I paired mine with the marshmallows from yesterday- and am running out the door now to the post office to send jars of cocoa to people I like.  :) 

Happy holiday food-crafting!
