Hot Chocolate Mix
Why buy store-bought chocolate milk mixes when you can easily make your own, minus the nasties? In a nice jar topped with mini marshmallows, this makes a gorgeous gift. Save this recipe for winter. Nothing beats a hot chocolate with marshmallows on those cold days. Combine 1-2 teaspoons of the mixture with hot milk and stir (and drink through a Tim Tam™!)
