Ingredients
Hot Chocolate Mix Ingredients
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 oz 60% cacao chocolate bar (about 1/2 bar) I use Ghirardelli
- 1 box chocolate cook and serve pudding NOT instant
- 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 1/2 cups dry milk
- 1 cup non-dairy creamer
Instructions
Preparation
- In a food processor or blender, blend the white chocolate chips and chocolate bar until you have a fine powder with no large chunks.
- In a large bowl with a lid or a zipper lock bag, combine all the ingredients.
- Put the lid on or seal the bag, and shake thoroughly until everything is completely mixed.
Making Hot Chocolate
- Mix 1/3 cup of the hot chocolate mix with 1 cup of water or milk.
- Place the mixture on the stove and bring it to a light simmer while stirring constantly.
- Alternatively, for the microwave: Mix the hot chocolate mix with the liquid in a microwave-safe dish. Heat in the microwave for 1 minute, stir thoroughly, then heat for another minute until it boils. Stir again and let it cool a bit. Enjoy!
Notes
Serve hot chocolate in a cozy mug topped with whipped cream, marshmallows, or cocoa powder. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for several months.
