What's Your Favorite Hot Chocolate Mix?

[ Edited ]

Although, many still cook the cocoa and add the milk, for those of us who don't want 4 servings, Which mix do you like?

 

This is my fav!  I also cook with their chocolate and get superior results!

A former co-worker used to bring in a jar of mix she made at home.  I think it was richer-tasting than any store-bought:

 

3 cups powdered milk

2 cups powdered sugar

1 1/2 cups cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips (I prefer Ghirardelli)

1/4 tsp salt

 

Pulse everything in food processor until chips are finely ground.

 

Combine 1/3 cup mix with 1 cup hot milk.

@deepwaterdotter This would be such a terrific Christmas present for people you just want to give a little something!

Good idea!  Notice I changed the amount of salt to 1/4 tsp.  Sorry about that, misread the very dog-eared recipe card.

I don’t drink much of it due to the milk, but usually buy Nestle or Swiss Miss.

I usually get swiss miss, I have never seen the one you posted, @ECBG. I'm going to look for that one next time I go to Kroger. I'm pretty sure my wal mart doesn't have it.
