Ok enough intro, onto the important stuff
Homemade Hot Cocoa Mix
You Will Need:
3 cups nonfat instant dry milk powder
2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Mix
all ingredients into a large bowl. Pour half of the mixture into the
bowl of a food processor and process until the chocolate is finely
ground. Transfer to an airtight container, then repeat with the
remaining mix. Store in the airtight container for up to 3 months.
To make the hot cocoa drink, mix 1/3 cup of the cocoa mix with 1 cup hot milk. About 20 servings
Using that much powder stuff, I ended up with a good size mess. But it was easy to clean up.
The Verdict: I mixed it with milk and with water to see how it compared.
The milk was definitely creamier and pretty good.
The water mixture was thinner but had a richer taste
Both of them left a cocoa powder after taste in my mouth which I wasn't to fond of but it was subtle. Also, it doesn't mix as well as other mixtures I've tried. There is a good amount of mixture that settles on the bottom, but it's an easy fix, just don't drink the last bit.
Overall, it was better then any store bought packets I have tried, but not nearly as good as Starbucks. But that might be because they use whole milk and whip cream.
