Instant Hot chocolate Mix
Yield: 1 gallon mix
10 2/3 cups nonfat dry milk (enough to make 8
quarts of milk)
1/2 cup (or 6 oz. jar) powdered nondairy coffee
creamer
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 lb. quick chocolate flavored mix
Water
1. Combine all ingredients, except water, in large
mixing bowl. (Mix may be stored in airtight 1-
gallon container.)
2. Place 1/4 cup mixture in serving mug. Fill with
water. Stir to blend. Heat on full power for 1 to
1 1/2 minutes, or until heated through.
Beverages Heating Guidelines
1. Hot tap water boils faster than cold.
Refrigerator-temperature beverages require a
longer heating or reheating time than room-
temperature beverages. Adjust times
accordingly.
2. If heating several individual servings, consider
heating in a pitcher, rather than in individual
cups. Try defrosting juice in a serving dish.
3. To avoid boil-overs, only fill a cup 2/3 to 3/4 full.
Most coffee cups are 6-ounce cups.
4. Always stir a beverage vigorously before
reheating.
5. Milk should not be allowed to boil. Heat milk
until it is just warmed. If desired, add
marshmallows to a cup of hot chocolate halfway
through heating time. Marshmallows will melt
just the right amount.
6 When reheating coffee and tea, for best taste,
do not allow to boil. Most reheated beverages
taste better when reheated to almost boiling.
7. Always add instant coffee or tea to hot water to
avoid bitter flavor and boil-overs. Water will not
boil over as easily as premixed coffee and tea.

Spread meat mixture over beans. Heat on full
