Peppermint Cocoa Mini Gift Jars

Homemade Hot Cocoa Powder Ingredients:

5 C. dry powdered milk
1 C. unsweetened cocoa powder
2 1/2 C. powder sugar
1 C. powder coffee cream, original/regular flavour
2 tsp. cornstarch to prevent sticking

*crushed peppermints
*Small glass jars

 

Directions:

#1. Combine the dry ingredients, mixing well. 

#2. Add about 1/4 cup of hot cocoa mix to the bottom of the each jar and allow it to settle. If you are unsure of the size of your jar, I would fill 3/4 of it with homemade cocoa mix and then fill the rest of the way with ‘extras’.

#3. Add in the crushed peppermints and fill to the top. 

*Each jar is about 1 serving when added to 8-10 oz of hot water or  milk.
