I was sent this recipe via Family Fun magazine. I thought it was a cute little twist on the typical gift jar recipes. It might make a simple and fun gift for your kids to bring to school for their classmates or for a party favor for a Christmas gathering you might have. Who doesn't like hot chocolate?
RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (for each cone)
3/4 cup cocoa mix
2 (6- by 12-inch) cone-shaped cellophane bags (available at party stores)
2 clear rubber bands
Scissors
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
3/4 cup mini marshmallows
1 large red gumdrop
1. Pour the cocoa mix into one of the bags. Close the bag with a clear rubber band, then trim the end of the bag 1 inch above the band.
2. Place the cocoa-filled bag into the second bag and flatten its top so the end doesn't stick up.
3. Layer the chocolate chips and the marshmallows, then top with the gumdrop. Secure the bag with the other rubber band.

Jaycie I love it! This is such a great idea...I'm going to make them with Brendan and have him take it to the teachers at Mommy's Day Out!
ReplyDeletePsst: There is a great hot cocoa mix recipe on last week's 12 Days of Christmas!! ;)
Cute idea. I don't have little ones, but my grandson is 3yo and he would love this.
ReplyDeleteTake care, Chrissie
Jenn and Chrissie,
ReplyDeleteI thought these were so cute, too! I can't wait to make some up with Nathan. I just have to find those cone-shaped papers. I'm sure our Michael's or party store will have them.
