This makes a dry hot cocoa mix, and packaged in quart jars with raffia and/or ribbon it makes a pretty gift.
1 cup cocoa powder
3 cups powdered milk
1 cup sugar
dash salt (or two)
2 Tablespoons cinnamon**
2 Tablespoons Ghiardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate (no substitutes!)
Dried mini marshmallows (optional, but fun. To dry, if you live in the desert you can just leave them on a baking sheet in your kitchen for a day or two. Or, stick them in a dehydrator.)
Whisk all ingredients into powder until well-blended. Store in glass jars. To serve, add about 4 or 5 Tablespoons of mix to a mug of hot water.
**The cinnamon is what lends the "Mexican" flavor. You can leave it out for just plain old Hot Cocoa.
