Homemade Hot Chocolate



1 (25.6-oz) box nonfat dry milk powder

1 (6-oz) jar powdered non-dairy coffee creamer (Coffeemate)
2 cups powdered sugar

1 (16-oz) can instant chocolate drink mix (Quik)
½ cup dark cocoa powder

Grind up nonfat dry milk powder using food processor to make sure the milk powder is very find. Sift all ingredients into a large bowl. Mix well. After mixing, sift again, then put in a large airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place. Can be stored up to 6 months.
To make hot chocolate, add 3 tablespoons mix to 1 mug of hot water. Stir to dissolve. To make cafe mocha, use 1 cup of hot coffee instead of water.

"Ounce" ingredients are by WEIGHT, not measure. If you can't find containers in the right ounce size, weigh out the ingredients.
