This is what I will be doing with my kids next weekend. We love to give homemade hot cocoa and cookies to their teachers as gifts!! The recipe below will fill approximately 4 jars ($2-$2.50 per jar). These jars can be bought at most big boxed stores, Walmart, Target, and if you are local Libby Glass Outlet Factory and be sure to take the coupon from the ValPaks!!
RECIPE FOR HOT CHOCOLATE
1 Box Nonfat Dry Milk (Makes 8 Quarts)
1 – 1# Box Nestle Quick
1 – 6 oz. Nondairy creamer
2 cups powdered sugar
Mix 1/3 cup mix to a cup of hot water. Stir and enjoy.
The kids love the homemade hot cocoa as they get to pick the jars out that they will put the hot cocoa in and then in the top we put small marshmallows. We attach a business card with the directions how to make it and then a little “MERRY CHRISTmas. . .GOD IS GOOD. . . ALL THE TIME!!
It was a tradition that my mom did every year for our teachers and I have just
continued it. . plus my kids love it!! I love the nutter butter bars that you can make into reindeers and santa. Super easy and the kids love to make them!
