Ready for Winter with Hot Chocolate

I can't be caught without hot chocolate in the winter! There's nothing like getting cozy with a warm cup of chocolate on a cold day. Even better if it's storming outside. Here's a hot chocolate mix you can make right now and store in your pantry.

2 cups dry milk powder
3/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup powdered nondairy creamer
1/8 tsp salt

Whisk in mixing bowl until blended. Makes about 4 cups of mix. Store in an airtight container. To serve: add 3-4 heaping tablespoons to a cup of boiling water.
(Substitute mini chips with chopped mint chocolate or white chocolate chips for a flavor variation.)
