Don't know why I have never shared this before... SO much better than pre-packaged cocoa mix...and so easy for a group.
For about 8 servings, depending on how rich you like your cocoa-
Sift together
2 c powdered sugar*
1 1/2 c dry milk powder
1 c baking cocoa
Make your cocoa with a 1:1 ratio of mix to hot water for a group serving of cocoa.
For a personal cup use about 1/2 c mix + 1/2 c hot water for a single serving. Stir well. Then add milk or cream or almond milk or coconut creamer or... whatever you like in your cocoa.
(you can also increase the dry milk powder (by about 1/2c) if you like it creamy and won't have access to any additions - like when we take it in a thermos while snowshoeing or skiing, etc.)
I found it delicious but a bit too rich with a straight 1:1 ratio, especially if I didn't add milk or something else. So if you don't have anything extra to mix with it... go a bit easy on the mix.
(I tried it with cactus honey powder, an alternative sugar I needed to use up, and it worked fine so it may be flexible -though stevia might alter the taste. But, it may be worth a try to reduce the sugar impact!)
