Transfer the hot chocolate mix to an airtight container or jar for storage. Keep in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
To prepare a cup of hot chocolate, heat 1 cup (240 ml) of milk in a small saucepan or microwave until hot but not boiling.
Add 3 tablespoons of the hot chocolate mix to the hot milk. Whisk or stir until fully dissolved and creamy.
Pour into a mug, top with whipped cream or marshmallows if desired, and enjoy!
