Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Put sugar (and vanilla bean powder, if using) into a food processor and turn on the food processor to make the sugar more fine and powder-like. 
  2. Let the food processor run for about 2-3 minutes.  Remove and put in a large bowl.
  3. Put the chocolate chips into your food processor and turn it on. Continue blending until the chips become finely chopped pieces of chocolate (about 1-2 minutes), almost powder-like. Warning! This will be loud!
  4. Working in batches, combine all the ingredients into the food processor and turn on to blend together, about 2 minutes.
  5. As you finish each batch, dump your mix into a single bowl. Once all batches are completed, stir the powder mix in your bowl, and it’s done!
  6. Put your hot cocoa powder into small jars to give away and add our free printable label for that final colorful touch, or store in an air-tight container.
Recipe Notes

Making Hot Chocolate:

Heat up a mug (about 8-10 oz) of milk (water can be used but won’t taste as “creamy”) until it’s hot.

Stir in 1-2 Tbsp of hot chocolate mix into your mug. (adjust to taste)

Drink up! Enjoy!

Topping options: whipped cream, ground cinnamon, chocolate flakes, cocoa powder, cinnamon stick, or mini marshmallows!!
