It sure is nice to cozy up with a hot cup of hot chocolate on a cold, winter night!
And what a wonderful way to show someone you care - by sending them a gift mix for Minty Hot Chocolate! You could also box this gift up with some really special mugs or colorful cups and saucers for a nice gift.
1 (10 ounce) pkg. mint chocolate chips (1 2/3 cups)
1 1/3 cups nonfat dry milk powder
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup quality unsweetened cocoa powder
8 peppermint sticks, or round hard candies
Layer ingredients attractively in two 2 cup jars, dividing everything equally. Insert peppermint sticks, candy canes, or candies around the inside of the jar or use with decorations on outside of jar if sealed in wrappers. Add additional chocolate pieces if necessary to fill any gaps.
GIFT TAG DIRECTIONS
Place contents of one jar with 1 2/3 cups water. Heat and stir over medium heat until hot and chocolate pieces are melted. Pour into 4 cocoa mugs, and serve with peppermint candy. Top with whipped cream or marshmallows if desired.
