How To Make Homemade Hot Chocolate Mix

This Homemade Hot Chocolate Mix blends powdered milk, icing sugar, cocoa powder, and semi-sweet chocolate chips into a ready-to-use powder. After processing into a fine consistency, it can be stored and mixed with hot water for a creamy, chocolatey drink. The mix creates a rich hot chocolate without needing to add milk separately. The recipe allows optional marshmallows to be added after blending for extra indulgence.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups powdered milk
  • 1 cup icing sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients in a larger food processor and process until completely broken down and it's powdered. The chocolate chips will take a while to become granules, so have patience and just let the food processor chop it all up.
  2. Store in an airtight container for 6 weeks (or more), but it won't last that long!(mini marshmallows are optional but can be added to the mix after processing). 
  3. Stir into hot water to taste (I like mine strong and use a good two heaping tablespoons for my mug). You don't need to add milk since we already use powdered milk in the mix.

Notes

  • Process the chocolate chips thoroughly to ensure a smooth powder without large pieces.
  • Store the mix in an airtight container for up to six weeks to maintain freshness.
  • Adjust the amount of mix per cup of water depending on desired chocolate strength.
  • Optional mini marshmallows may be added after processing for extra sweetness.
  • Nutritional values may vary based on ingredient brands and quantities used.
