A neighbor just dropped off a thoughtful Christmas gift to you but you hadn’t planned on giving anything to them. Quick! What do you do?
This has happened to me more than I care to admit but this year, I’m prepared!
In my Christmas arsenal this year, I have some of these darling Hot Cocoa Mix Ornaments made up and ready to go for any last minute gift giving. A big thanks to Bubbly Nature Creations for this great pin! I pinned this months ago and was so excited to make them!
These are super easy to make but make a great presentation. I bought the clear, round glass ornaments at Wal-Mart. Make sure you thoroughly wash and dry these first. Then you will need whatever cocoa mix you desire. Just use one package for each ornament. In the middle ornament, I used a white chocolate cocoa mix. Using a funnel, pour your cocoa mix into your ornaments. I put my ornaments into a muffin tin to keep them upright while filling.
Then fill with whatever extras that you want. Some suggestions are mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, crushed candy cane, mini M&M’s and the little blue balls in the middle ornament are Sixlet candies which I found at Wal-Mart near the rest of the sprinkles. Then top that off with Kraft’s Mini Mallow Puffs which usually can be found near the hot cocoa mixes in your grocery store.
Put your cap on, add a bow and you have a great little gift. I especially love the white and blue one!
Now just add these to some hot water and enjoy! Neighbors coming and bearing gifts? Bring them on!
This Pin Rocks!
Did you wash the ornaments before you put the ingredients in them ?
Hi Sherri! Yes I did and I just added that instruction to our post. Thanks so much for the heads up! Deb – The Oldest Sister
Hello, I was wondering what size of ornaments you used, also were they the sphere/ball ones or the disc/flattened ones? Thank you. (:
I used the round/sphere ball ones and not the flattened ones but I think the flattened ones might be able to work!
I, have not for the life of me, been able to find white cocoa mix. Where did you find it? What brand?
I used Stephen’s and here’s an Amazon link to it! https://amzn.to/2gI5CPT
