Friday's Recipe

With the freezing temperatures we've been having this past week, hot chocolate has been a nice treat to keep warm.

I love that you can make your own mix and give it as gifts, or save some for later.

**Add some cinnamon & nutmeg to your mix for a spiced hot chocolate mix!**

* 6 1/2 cups powdered milk
* 1 (5 ounce) package non-instant chocolate pudding mix
