Gifts-in-a-jar Peppermint Stick Hot Cocoa

This is a recipe my cousin sent me Peppermint stick-hot chocolate link (don't want to get in trouble for copying, I'm not sure of the etiquette of blogging:-)

I did not make this one, but how could it not be good!!! Plus it is super pretty to look at.

Peppermint Stick Hot Cocoa

• 1 cup powdered milk
• 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candy

Preparation

• Layer powdered milk, cocoa powder, sugar, salt, chocolate chips, and peppermint candy.

Note: This mix will fill a 1-quart jar (12 servings), but if your containers are different sizes, just keep the ratio of ingredients constant. On the back of the tag, write: "Mix contents in a large bowl. For each serving, place 1/3 cup cocoa mix in a mug and stir in 1 cup boiling water. Store remaining mix in airtight container."

Gifts-in-a-jar Dreaming of a White Christmas

So this soup had to be great, it had a great name good ingredients, but I was disappointed in it. It needed a little something else. Maybe carrots, onions, peas, something a little sweet. I'm listing it because a good cook would know what to do to make it great instead of just OK. So if you figure it out please tell me what it needs!  * I also can't find celery flakes, that could be the difference, I used 2 tsp of celery seeds instead.
