With the Christmas season upon us, it seems to be there is never enough time to make all the gifts for everyone on our lists. At least I find that happening. All too often, I'm thinking about our sweet bus driver who waits for my kids in the snow so they don't have to stand outside in yucky weather; the mailman who always has a kind word even when bringing those nasty bills, and the ladies at my local dry cleaners who know me by name and ask after my dad's health scare. I have great intentions of making these great Christmas gifts for them, but run out of time and energy.
So I'm starting before the "last minute" this year and plan to have a bunch of these Easy Christmas cocoa gifts in my purse. That way, I won't forget anyone as I'm out and about running errands and remember someone else who has made my day a little brighter.
In case you feel the need to say an extra Christmas Merry Christmas too, all you need is:

In case you feel the need to say an extra Christmas Merry Christmas too, all you need is:
Starbucks® Peppermint Hot Cocoa Mix
Emerald Green Curling Ribbon
Christmas Cocoa Printable
Start by printing out the Christmas Cocoa poem at the bottom of the page onto good card stock. You will need to right click on the picture and save it to your computer. Then you can print it out using your computer's print program. There are three Christmas cocoas to a page. I wish I could take credit for this beautiful program, but I don't know who wrote it as I've had it for MANY years. So if anyone knows, please let me know so I can give proper credit.
I used some good Starbucks® Hot Cocoa Mix in peppermint and toasted marshmallow flavors. I found this brand at my local grocery store, so you can probably pick it up anywhere or even at Amazon.
Simply add the hot chocolate to a 4" x 10" Candy Treat Bags and then the Christmas cocoa poem. I tied mine with a bow using Emerald Green Curling Ribbon to accent the green in the poinsettia leaves on the poem. Now you have some easy Christmas cocoa gifts for everyone on your Christmas list too!
