Homemade Hot Chocolate Mix For a Crowd

Homemade Hot Chocolate Mix | kristinschell.com

This super chocolate-y hot chocolate will bring good cheer to anyone who drops by for a visit. The creamy blend of cocoa and white chocolate says l.o.v.e. in a mug.

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.
~ Charles Schulz

Keep this dry mix on your counter in a festive container. When friends arrive you’ll be ready to serve a special treat for the visit. We like to stir a little peppermint into the hot chocolate and top with a fresh dollop of whipped cream. Beware ~ your friends may never want to leave.

The Littles and I made extra hot chocolate mix for gifts. Package the mix in a festive mug or mason jar, add peppermint sticks or marshmallows, and tie with a pretty ribbon.

Voilà you’ve got a perfect gift!

    Looks good. Think I’d use half dark chocolate bars and half white chocolate! I’m in love with dark chocolate. Love chocolate and peppermint combo, I often stir my hot chocolate with a peppermint stick.

    Definitely gonna make this for my kiddos. I’m with Nana Phyllis – I’d love to try dark chocolate for myself. But my kiddos prefer the flavor of milk chocolate over dark.

      Claire, you should probably come try a mug. Like right now. And, I’ve got a Mexican Hot Chocolate mix I’m working on that is pretty decadent…what would really flip my lid would be a dark chocolate and salted caramel blend.

    Loved finding your site. A girl at our church put a Turquoise Table in her front yard. One Sunday, our minister acknowledged what she had done and the success it had been in her neighborhood. What a good way to spread the love of Jesus – by being His hands and feet in doing good for others. Keep up the good work, Kristin!

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!

Have you ever had pashka? A sweet friend from chur Have you ever had pashka? A sweet friend from church — who I haven’t seen in person in ONE solid year— just delivered this traditional Russian dessert. She said she hasn’t hosted a gathering in so long she decided to pull out all her heart molds and make a favorite dessert to surprise her friends.

What a special way to offer hospitality during Covid. I feel sooooo loved and my family will go nuts! 

Now I’m thinking of what I miss making for guests that I can whip up and deliver this weekend. 🚐💌 

What do you miss making? What if we all dropped off some sweet love to someone we miss this Valentine’s Day?!? 💗🥰
