Jan zepp's hot chocolate mix

40 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
Enough dry milk to make 10 quarts; (according to package directions)
2 pounds Nestle's Quik
11 ounces Powdered coffee creamer
1 pounds Powdered sugar

Directions

The following recipes and tips were in an article in the Food Day section of the Oregonian. They are from Marnie Swedberg, author of "Marnie's Kitchen Shortcuts."

Combine dry milk, Nestle's Quick, creamer and sugar. Store in sealed plastic container.

To use: Add ⅓ to ½ cup of mix to 1 cup hot water.

Tips:

* Store homemade mixes in airtight, moisture-proof containers or in resealable freezer bags. Swedberg prefers sour cream and cottage cheese containers; for large batches, she uses ice cream buckets and deli containers.

* Mixes containing shortening or bread crumbs will stay fresh for six months. Spice mixes will stay fresh longer, but tastes and aromas may decline with age. Freezing extends shelf life.

* An empty shoe box works well as a "filing cabinet" for plastic freezer bags filled with dry mixes.

* Label mixes as you prepare them. Include the name of the mix, date assembled and use instructions. Try self-adhesive labels or a small square of paper taped to the container.

* Assembly will go more quickly if you use two sets of measuring utensils: one for dry ingredients and the other for shortening.
