Using both cocoa powder and bitter sweet chocolate gives the deepest, flavorful chocolate flavor, and when this is added to milk and cream, it really becomes addictive. Since it is homemade, other spices can even be added if there is a special preference. Hot chocolate milk is perfect for cold, windy days and make a great replacement for tea and other beverages. This Homemade Spiced Hot Cocoa Mix makes for an excellent DIY Christmas Gift option. Pack some in a nice glass jar and tie it with a ribbon to make a cute Xmas gift. Here is how to make it.
