Cocoa Recipes, Vanilla Cocoa and More!
On these cold winter days and with the Holidays coming up, curling up with a nice mug of hot cocoa is so warm and soothing. Also you can give these cocoa mix ideas as Christmas Gifts. They are easy to put together and have awesome flavor.
Feel free to print the recipe below as it makes 4 or more flavors just by changing one ingredient!
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp flavored powdered coffee creamer
- 1/2 cup dry milk
- 1/2 cup chocolate flavored drink mix (like Quik) or Non-named brand works too
- *Powdered Coffee creamer is available in so many flavors now you can use your imagination. Such as Caramel Macchiato, Vanilla Latte, Hazelnut, Amaretto etc.
- I used Vanilla creamer (French Vanilla) in mine.
- Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
- Blend very well with a whisk.
- Place mix into a jar or container of your choice for storage.
- Place 1 1/2 tbsp-2 tbsp mix into a cup. Add 1 cup boiling water. Stir until mixture is completely dissolved.
- Top with whip cream or a small scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
- **Gift idea or stocking stuffers**
- You can get small zip lock bags in the craft section of Walmart or possibly Target etc.
- They fit up to 2tbsp of this mix in them.
- Put a little tag on them that says the name of the flavor of cocoa you made. Add a chocolate spoon with it in a coffee mug (if not for a stocking) but a teacher gift etc.
