Easy Creamy Hot Cocoa Mix Recipe

I love hot cocoa, especially when it is chilly outside. My favorite way to enjoy it is when I mix a bit of the cocoa with my coffee instead of cream and sugar. My homemade Cafe Mocha is always a hit around here! But in order to make that I need to share the recipe I have used to make my own cocoa mix.

This recipe is super simple, with just a few ingredients. And you can even jar it for gift giving too!
