I love making handmade gifts. It shows that you really thought of the person you're giving it to. It also lets you be creative :)
70g cocoa powder
4tbs sugar
3tbs corn starch
Mix it all up and put it in a pretty jar.
After it, write the basic recipe for one mug:
250ml milk
2tbs hot chocolate mix
1/2tbs butter
You can also have fun and write more recipes with add-ons

To make the present even better add the ingredients for the recipes written above: vanilla and rum extract, marshmallows, sprinkles, crushed peppermint candy, fudge, cinnamon, whatever you or the lucky person receiving it love to taste. Add labels to them if you're doing what I did and packaging everything in foil or plastic wrap.
You should always mix one mug, just to see if you have the proprtions right :D
Handmade gifts are a great way to go, especially if you're on a tight holiday budget. The only problem with this particular idea is that I'd want to keep it for myself. Hehe!
