Ingredients

1 cup Nestle unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups Granulated sugar
1 cup Powdered milk
2 tablespoons Cornstarch
0.25 teaspoons Salt
1 cup Miniature marshmallows (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Nestle unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, powdered milk, cornstarch, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.

Step 2

If you are adding miniature marshmallows, set them aside for now; they will be added to the jar later.

Step 3

Spoon the cocoa powder mixture into a clean, dry 16-ounce mason jar (or another airtight container).

Step 4

Top the cocoa mix with a layer of miniature marshmallows if using, sealing the jar tightly afterwards.

Step 5

Attach a label to the jar with instructions for preparing the hot cocoa: 'To make one serving, mix 3 tablespoons of cocoa mix with 1 cup of hot milk or hot water. Stir well and enjoy!'

Step 6

Store the jar in a cool, dry place. This mix will remain fresh for up to 6 months if sealed properly.
