We always have home made Instant Hot Chocolate Mix in the pantry. Today my wife found these miniature marshmallows, perfect for a mug of Hot Chocolate.
Home Made Hot Chocolate:
This is our favorite Hot Chocolate.
3 C Whole Milk
3 C Half and Half
Heat to simmer
Add 2 C Chocolate Chips ( I prefer Ghirardelli)
Stir until the Chocolate melts
Add 2 TBS Vanilla
(if you want to kick it up a notch and make it Tex - Mex, add 1/8tsp Ground Cayenne Pepper)!
Serve Hot!
Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
This makes a hot, instant, Homemade Cappuccino drink.
2 C non dairy coffee creamer
1 C instant dry milk
1 1/2 TBS Chocolate Nesquik
2/3 C instant coffee ( I use Medaglia D'Oro instant espresso)
3/4 C sugar
3/4 C Confectioner's sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
a dash of vanilla
Mix all but the vanilla
Store in a sealed container
Use 3 rounded TBS of the mix per cup of hot water
Add a dash of Vanilla to each cup of Cappuccino.
Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
Instant Homemade Hot Chocolate Mix:
This recipe is from a newspaper clipping in the 70's. My wife has had it since then and she adapted it. I've never known a time when we haven't had a container of it in our Pantry. It's a Winter Staple at our house.
Here's a photograph of the original recipe and my wife's note as she figured out the taste that she wanted.
Here's my wife's version:
1 pound of Powdered Sugar
1 - 30oz. box of Nestle's Quick
12 ounces of a non dairy creamer
1/2 of an 8 quart box of Instant Milk
Combine all ingredients well.
To serve, add 1/2 C of the mixture to a mug and add boiling water.
Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!

This is just another version.
1 1/2 C Whole Milk
1/2 C Heavy Cream
2 tsp Confectioner's Sugar
1/2 tsp Medaglia d'Oro Espresso Coffee Powder

Cream
Sugar
Coffee Granules

Remove from heat.
Add:
Chocolate
Whisk until it melts.
Return to simmer if necessary.
Serve topped with a Dollop of Whipped Cream.
Enjoy!
