Whip up your own white hot chocolate mix, it is beyond easy! It just takes a handful of ingredients and maybe ten minutes if you take your time. Then you can make creamy white hot chocolate all winter long.
A Perfect Homemade Gift
It is the perfect way to warm up on a chilly day. Or pass out jars as gifts for neighbors, friends and teachers at Christmas.
At Christmastime we like to sprinkle in edible gifts for our friends and family. They are fun to make and folks are happy to receive them.
This white hot chocolate powder makes a perfect little present because the recipient can enjoy it easily. Only a mug and hot water are required, no additional ingredients are needed.
Plus, once it has been used there is nothing to dust, no rearranging to find it a permanent home. Just pure enjoyment!


Luckily it only takes 5 simple ingredients to whip up a batch. If you have a big food processor (at least 10 cups), it only takes a few minutes as well.

This white hot chocolate pairs well with so many flavor profiles. It is great on its own, of course. It has a rich white chocolate flavor.
The traditional marshmallow topping is good, so are cute chocolate Rudolph marshmallows. Or try a little candy cane for peppermint undertones.
Feel free to experiment with a fresh grating of nutmeg. Or use this mix as a powdered coffee creamer. Wouldn’t that be amazing? It would be like an instant white chocolate mocha.

You can even use some of your homemade mix to make white hot chocolate cookies. See, the possibilities really are endless!
Well I have worked up a thirst just thinking about it. So I hope you give this yummy mix a try.
Is white chocolate just vanilla?
No, white chocolate is made with cocoa butter, sugar, milk products and a bit of vanilla. It doesn’t have chocolate solids, and doesn’t taste like chocolate, but it is different than vanilla baking chips.


Add Something Extra
We like making this white hot chocolate mix recipe as written so we can add other flavors like candy cane bits or cinnamon when we make the mug of hot cocoa. However, you can blend those extra flavors into the mix if you want.

It was a lot of fun to do a whole week of hot chocolate themed posts!
This is awesome!
Hi Carlee!
You got me at 'simple to make'. 🙂 I don't think I have ever had white hot chocolate but it sounds delicious and I am definitely in the mood for a cup. Thanks for sharing MiMi's recipe.
Merry Christmas!

I just love white hot chocolate! Soooo creamy and yummy!
Perfect timing! I set up a hot drink bar in my kitchen and I'm looking for new recipes to try out in my slow cooker. Thanks for the idea!
Oooh, yum! What else are you having?
This is how Chloe enjoyed her first taste of the hot chocolate mix we sent back to school with her. She plugged in her Christmas tree, climbed in bed and thoroughly enjoyed her warm hug-I mean hot chocolate. IMG_2844.JPG
It's too bad the picture didn't come through. I'll add it to the post when I get a chance. Even if it shows a treat that hasn't been posted yet! I am glad she is liking hot chocolate week!
I did not realize until today that it was hot chocolate week all week! I love it girl! White chocolate is my absolute favorite so I was so happy to see this!
I thought it would be fun to stay on the theme all week! I had so much fun getting everything together for it! Thanks, Andrea!
This sounds so good, Carlee! I also checked out the regular hotx cocoa one, too. The Rudolph jar is so cute. My grands would love making those.
Thank you! We had a lot of fun making the mixes and dressing up the jars. The white hot chocolate gessed dressed tomorrow 😉
Which is your favorite one?
I really like them both. I probably like the white chocolate one a bit more because it is different.
Hot chocolate sounds so comforting this time of year.

It is like a sweet warm hug! Mmm!
I love hot chocolate mix! For some reason I always crave white hot chocolate around the holidays so this is perfect.
I love white chocolate for the holidays too. With a few peppermint chips… mmmm!
Ohhh this looks delicious! And what a quick and inexpensive gift to pull together for the holidays.
Thank you! I would be very happy with some hot chocolate gifts this winter! I love how creamy and decadent white chocolate is!
