cocoa mix

I love hot cocoa...always used to make it and give as gifts around the holidays...here's my s/f version...It causes me no problems blood sugar-wise, YMMV.

1/2 (9.6 ounce) box Instant nonfat dry milk powder
2/3 c + 1 tsp. SPLENDA from the box
1/3 c + 1 tsp. powdered creamer
1/3 c + 1 tsp. cocoa

Preparation
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, stirring well. Store in an airtight container.

Combine 1/4 cup Hot Cocoa Mix with 3/4 cup boiling water for an individual serving. Serve immediately

* For Peppermint-Flavored Hot Cocoa Mix, add 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies to Hot Cocoa Mix recipe. Serve with a peppermint stick.

*For mocha flavored Hot Cocoa Mix, add 2-3 tbsp. instant coffee to mix.

*For cinnamon flavor, add a few shakes of cinnamon to mix and add cinnamon stick to mug.
