This Cinnamon Hot Cocoa recipe sounds so yummy!! It's perfect weather for a delicious, warm, cup of hot cocoa topped with melting marshmellows!
Begin by gathering all ingredients together. It's much easier if it's all within reach before you start. Here's what you'll need:
- 1 cup sugar (we use turbinado)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 heaping cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
In a medium sized mixing bowl combine both sugars and whisk together. Add in cocoa, salt, and cinnamon. Whisk until incorporated.
Using a canning funnel, fill a clean glass jar with homemade cinnamon hot cocoa mix. Be sure jar is completely dry before filling.
Now, you're ready to give as a gift, or to make hot cocoa for yourself whenever the mood strikes.
To make homemade cinnamon hot cocoa, heat 8-12 ounces of milk in a microwave safe dish (or heat on stove top).
While milk is warming, add 1-2 Tablespoons of cinnamon hot cocoa mix to a large mug. Once milk is heated, slowly pour into the mug, stirring to incorporate.
Top your hot cocoa with marshmallows and enjoy!
