This delicious blend of rich chocolately goodness is a wonderful pick me up during the cold winter. It’s simple to make and have on hand as a delicious alternative to the expensive store mixes.

1 cup milk powder
1 cup powdered coffee creamer
1 cup sugar
½ cup cocoa powder

Mix well and store in a labeled container.

To make cocoa, use about 1 tablespoon mix per 1/4 cup steaming hot water added, or up to 5 tablespoons per regular mug.

Variations:

Peppermint— add 8 crushed peppermint Lifesavers to a batch of mix

Vanilla— add 5 teaspoons vanilla powder to a batch of mix

Cinnamon— add 4 teaspoons cinnamon to a batch of mix

  1. I made this for holiday gifts for my coworkers and sticking stuffers. I got great feedback. I did increase the cocoa to 3/4 cup to make it a little richer.
