It is storming in the Pacific Northwest. Rain beats down on the roof and the wind rattles the windows. In the distance I hear thunder rolling and the dark sky encompasses it all. I’ll be honest, it’s a little scary out there. Inside I’m cozied up to a luminous fire, my computer, and a warm cup of hot cocoa. It’s a lot nicer in here.
Come, join me! Pull up and chair and share my fire. I’ll even give you a cup of this sweet and decadent hot cocoa with this Vegan Hot Chocolate Mix. 
This Vegan Hot Chocolate Mix is straight out of my childhood (veganized from it’s original recipe, of course). The recipe was passed down from my mom’s mom; beyond that, I’m not sure it’s origin.
What I do know is that I grew up drinking this cocoa every year for as long as I can remember and as soon as I became a mom, I found that I just couldn’t get into the holiday spirit without some of this homemade cocoa mix around. So I started making my own version. Since then I have continued to add variations to the recipe. With so many possibilities, this vegan hot cocoa is always a hit!
Beyond being incredibly easy to make (just 3 ingredients and about 5 minutes of prep time!), this Vegan Hot Cocoa Mix makes a great holiday gift. One batch fills 3 pint-sized mason jars which are great holiday party favors, stocking stuffers, or gifts for the family.
So, warm up from this storm with a warm cup of vegan hot cocoa.
