Welcome back friends! Who wants some warm and comforting hot cocoa on a cold winter morning or evening? Maybe with some homemade marshmallows and a good book or movie? I know I do, so let’s make some mix!
HOT COCOA MIX
- 3/4 cup of natural unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups of dry nonfat or whole milk powder
- 1 cup of powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup of white chocolate chips
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
INSTRUCTIONS
- Whisk together the cocoa powder, milk powder, powdered sugar and salt in a large bowl, then add the white chocolate chips and stir again to evenly distribute them.
- Add the mixture to a food processor and pulse until everything is finely ground and smooth.
- This dry cocoa mix can be store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
- To make hot cocoa, put 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the cocoa mix in a mug and stir in 1 cup of hot milk (whichever milk you prefer).
- Top with whipped cream or miniature marshmallows, if desired and enjoy!
During these Summer months, and even into Fall, we get some pretty warm and sometimes uncomfortably hot days. To cool Zoey off and soothe her teething gums, I thought it would be fun and refreshing to make some frozen treats using the food she already eats and candy molds!
