A shelf-stable chocolate mint coffee mix made from creamer, sugar, instant coffee, cocoa and crushed peppermint. Stir a few spoonfuls into hot water for a quick mug, or pack it in a jar for gifting.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup powdered coffee creamer
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup instant coffee powder
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 6 peppermint candies crushed
  • Whipped cream for garnish (optional)
  • Candy cane for stirring (optional)

Directions

  • Put the powdered creamer, sugar, instant coffee, cocoa, and crushed peppermint candies in a blender or food processor.
  • Run it until the peppermint turns to a fine powder and the mix looks even.
  • Spoon into an airtight jar or container.

Notes

To serve, stir 2 to 3 tablespoons of mix into a mug of hot water. Top with whipped cream and stir with a candy cane, if you like. Store airtight in a cool, dry pantry away from heat and steam; best within 6 months. Refrigerate leftover prepared drink; use within 3 to 4 days.
