Homemade Instant Hot Chocolate Mix – Special Last Minute Edible Christmas Gift Idea!

So, you didn't exactly get your Christmas shopping done early this year. In fact, it's Christmas Eve, and you haven't started yet. Well, you're in luck, because there's such a thing as this homemade instant hot chocolate mix. We really shouldn't be rewarding you for procrastinating, but that's exactly what we are doing here.

Not only is this stuff way better tasting, and contains no "how do you pronounce that?" ingredients, but it also takes just seconds to make, and you may already have everything you need in the pantry. Just make sure one of those things is a very high quality cocoa powder.

I'm linking to the same exact Dutch-processed "cocoa rouge" that I used here, so that you can get all the particulars, and hopefully find something very similar. The better the cocoa, the better the hot chocolate. Or is it hot cocoa? Either way.

By the way, this will be the last video of the year, and we'll be taking a little break until the New Year. Whether it includes homemade hot chocolate or not, I want to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year! And, as always, enjoy!

Makes enough for about 20 cups of hot chocolate: 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 1/2 cup white sugar 1 teaspoon fine salt pinch of cayenne - Use 2 tablespoons per cup of hot milk
