Happiness In A Cup

Did you know today is National Hot Cocoa Day? I love Hot Cocoa how about you? 

Hot Cocoa is just happiness in a cup. My favorite thing to add to the warming goodness drink is cinnamon. I put a couple of dashes of cinnamon in my drink now. I have my husband hooked on it too, of course marshmallows are a must and on occasion a little peppermint candy cane is nice too. When I was a child, after playing in the snow, my Mom would give us a cup of hot cocoa and toast with cinnamon and sugar. My sister, Lisa and I would typically hate coming inside until we saw what was waiting for us on the table. Now, my Mom's hot cocoa was home made and we just thought it was the bomb!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups Unsweetened Cocoa (Mom always used Nesquik)
• 4 cups Powdered Milk (Mom always used Carnation)
• 3 cups Powdered Sugar
• 1 cup Non Dairy Creamer
• 1 1/2 teaspoon of Pure Vanilla Powder

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix with a wire whisk until well combined. Store in an air tight container.

Per Cup

• 1/3 cup cocoa mix to 3/4 cup of boiling hot water. Mix well. 

• 2 Tablespoons to 1/4 cup of boiling hot water. Mix well for a small cup.

Do you add anything to your Hot Cocoa?

Many Blessing,
