I love to browse through magazines for new recipes and ideas. Thanks to my iPhone, I no longer spend time copying those recipes I want to try, I just snap a picture!
This cocoa recipe looked so unique from other recipes I'd seen, I knew we had to try it! The ingredients were a bit pricey, but for around $24, I have enough supplies for a double batch, roughly 60 servings. Our family definitely doesn't need 60 servings of hot cocoa, so some gifts were in order!
We combined all the ingredients in a large bowl and then measured out 1/3 c. into our bags. To make them look more crisp and pretty, we slipped the bag into another bag and topped it with marshmallows. A label for directions finished our little project.
We filled tin pails with the cocoa and attached a Christmas card (Thanks to Vistaprint for the free Christmas postcards which we had printed blank on the backside!). Cloe wrote a little note on each card.
Voila! Our gifts were finished!

I just saw a recipe in my Taste of Home magazine for hot chocolate using malt powder and wondered if it was good -- did you like it? We're giving hot chocolate mix as gifts this year too :)
That is almost the exact same recipe that I use! It is YUMMY!! Did you try some to see how much yummy goodness was being packaged up? I hope so!!! Next task on my list is to make a batch of Oreo Balls!
