Thanks for watching! Love, Mary
Hi Mary! Great vid as always, thank you. I wonder whether the shelf life would be longer, when using powdered whole milk, if kept in the fridge? Or does it ruin the mix somehow?
It’ll definitely last longer if you put it in the fridge when you’re using whole milk powder. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
@@MarysNest Thank you so much for the prompt reply! I kind of knew that, but I wasn't sure that the mix wouldn't somehow be ruined in the fridge...
Just for a moment, ignoring her fabulous, priceless, store of information........wouldn’t you just LOVE to have this sweet, precious, soul for a friend? Everything , everything about this channel is perfection! Thank u you oh so very much.
I’d love for her to be my mother in law!
@@algonquinwoman1921 My daughter said the same thing! 🤣 But her son is too young for her. 😂 Even so, she would love someone like Mary to be her MIL.
She's my friend. So are you. Hugs!!! 🙋🏼♀️🌹
Amen to that!
She is a doll. My daughter is 24 and she has Asperger's. She thinks Mary is the best thing since sl8ced bread! We love her videos. She is so warm and friendly, not to mention very smart!
Mary, when God created you, He gave you an extra dose of peace. Every time I watch your videos and hear your voice I heard a familiar sound from my childhood that just calms me. I don't know if it's a neighbor or a teacher or a nurse, but it is a warm feeling. I love this recipe and will share. Stay blessed😊🌹
Thank you so much for the kind words!! ❤️🤗❤️
She reminds me of my mom.
I agree, Mary is the sweetest with the kindest heart.
I agree if my anxiety high I have a few people I watch on UA-cam that have that soothing voice that's relaxing and she is one of them she reminds me of my sweet grandmother who raised me
She does have that comforting way about her doesn't she??
Who in their right mind would "downvote" sweet Mary's video?
This is great, thank you Mary!!
I have never downvoted Mary, but I do wish she would review her videos and count the number of times she says “go ahead and...”. It’s sometimes just the little things that make a video difficult to listen to. Just my opinion.
@@bon47ful I guess she says it because she already knows the zillions of repetitive questions will be coming and so she likes to answer them in advance; to help calm the on-slaught, if you will. 😁❤️But yeah, you have to be into her grove to really enjoy the length of the dialogue...and if not, simply turn to her beautifully prepared printable recipes that are the best on You Tube. LOL.😍🧡🌼❤️🧡‼️(Me personally, I could listen till I fall asleep.)
Perhaps they are lactose intolerant and can't handle the powdered milk?
It's a good thing (only in this case / video) that we cannot see the number of down votes. I say, "only in this case" because I want to see down votes for the liberal videos out there. And there are hundreds of thousands of down votes for liberal videos. The powers that shouldn't be on the internet, Google, UA-cam, do not want anyone to see the down votes for those kinds of videos.
I'd say only stupid or jealous people.....or maybe both....she is trying to help people, and you can tell she would not hurt anyone, all they have to do is not watch her channel, no one is making them do it.....I don't understand either.....
I'm raising an 9 year old family member that I got from the state to keep him out of the foster care system. Thanks to you he thinks Im the BEST because I make EVERYTHING. scratch! WISH I had known you when I was raising my kids 30 years ago!! Thank You!
You sound like a very loving parental figure, I'm glad your young relative came to you and I'm sure they are too! God bless you both. XXX
@@glamdolly30 Awww Thank You!
I would think cupcake liners would work really well to slip into the jar to separate the marshmallows and hot cocoa mix.
Great tip!
Brilliant idea Shelly ❤️
Its 52 degrees here in Wisconsin cloudy and rain I like to mix hot chocolate in my coffee topped with whip cream
Fruit cups filled with the baby marshmallows, turned upside down on a wide mouth canning lid would look nice on a gift jar.
God bless you, Mary. You don't need to be "Pinterest perfect". You're a real, sweet, generous lady who shares wisdom.
Thank you so much for the kind words!! You made my day!! ❤️🤗❤️
Dont have to worry about tbe shelf life in my house...the homemade hot cocoa wouldnt last that long!😉☕❤️ I didnt know thats what sucanat meant! Thanks again for another informative video with your gentle spirit.
Thank you for mentioning that we can substitute arrowroot powder for corn starch in recipes. With GMO corn starch concerns, I am so happy to hear this!
If you’re using powdered sugar from the store you will not need the cornstarch since there is cornstarch already in it. It’s there to prevent caking as well although powdered sugar without cornstarch is available also.
Also. Because of this For gluten free necessity, make sure store bought powdered sugar is gluten free.
Hi Mary, I like to ask an expert.....is this correct that powdered sugar from the store has corn starch in it ???? I have never heard that before ....:)
My Son when he bakes if he doesn't have powdered sugar he grinds the regular sugar and makes his own.....he was the one who told me this...so I learn something from my Son who does a lot of cooking at his house....and he makes a mean Apple Pie....last time he visited us, he made us one of his fav. Pies....all his Daughters when he goes for a visit he has to at least make them one of His Apple Pies:) they love it too....I just think that is so neat....he makes his own crust....I told him he puts my pie to shame...I cheat and use store bought pie crust LOL
I did not know this about powdered sugar......but I want to use Monk sweetener......white sugar feeds cancer and is so bad for us, I try to stay away from it when I can use a safer substitute.... and Bobby Flav City says this Monk sugar is a Bobby approved sweetener....you can check his blog, he is up to date on everything.....can learn a lot from him.....
Last week I found a cute box pattern to make out of paper and I thought that would be great for Christmas hot cocoa ... this week here you are... THANK YOU Can't wait to try this..... I did find the OVEN
DEHYDRATE method for marshmallows
Preheat the oven to the LOWEST setting you can get. Preferably 200°F or lower. Place marshmallows on a single layer on the baking sheet. Toss every 20 minutes and bake until marshmallows are completely dry. (It is a good idea to leave the oven door cracked open so you can keep a good eye on the marshmallows and avoid getting them too hot).
Let marshmallows cool and store in an airtight jar in the pantry.
Mrs. Mary, just made a half batch using store brand sweetener for us diabetic folks to make sure I liked it. I used dark chocolate powder and a cup of artificial sweetener and heated milk on the stove and it was delicious, I think I would probably add a little less sugar and I loved using milk instead of water even though it had powdered milk. I will try with water but thanks so much for all you do. I learned how to make bread during the beginning of Covid and passed around to friends, kept me busy since I couldn’t work. ❤️
My sister is diabetic and cannot have any sugar I made your exact recipe without the sugar I added hot water to my cup and I added two tablespoons of the cocoa and milk powder which I sifted all together along with the corn starch and the salt then I just used one sweet and low and one Splenda I also added one tablespoon of coffee creamer it was the yummiest cocoa
My 3 daughters always do Christmas Eve movies. I think I will make this up in fancy jars and gift bag along with marshmallows and candy canes. Thanks so much.
Many years ago in I had a recipe for something similar but I know it wasn’t as healthy a recipe as this. Also I would add finely ground instant coffee sometimes for cappuccino.
That sounds yummy. How much Coffee did you add.
@@TravelingNana63in fact, powder milk isn't healthy
25 years ago I tried working, by myself, through Sally’s philosophy and book It was tough for me. Ohhhh how I wish I had you then ! My 8 children would have appreciated you even more! You make ALL of it soooo possible!
Thanks!
This recipe is just what I am looking for. Just a simple cocoa.
That would make a wonderful gift. And I just love Mary. She just sounds like she is full of the love of God. ❤
Wow she is so full of knowledge!! What a blessing she is to everyone. She truly does everything full heartedly and enjoys sharing her wisdom. Thank you !
Great idea Mary!! 🤗 I might add some cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne to make it kind of like Mexican hot chocolate!!
Yum!!
I think I'll make a batch of that too
How much cinnamon and cayenne would you recommend for the 20 serving size?
@@rhondavanmeter5015 I would start with 1-2 tsp cinnamon and 1/4tsp cayenne. Adjust to your liking. I like strong cinnamon taste.
I add little vanilla and splash of cream. Dry milk is nonfat - blech
I like to make own home made flavorful marshmallows. Rasberry would be awesome with the cocoa. When I cut out shapes, there are always scraps. This is such an excellent use of the scraps. I never thought of dehydrating them!
Ooh, orange or mint.
@@lauriemashek5419 Yum I would love orange marshmallows, you do not see those and I love that flavor.....never made marshmallows....always felt like it was a lot of trouble.....
Mary you are wonderful. You taught me to make my first jam and I love your “old fashioned “ style. The best gifts are simple and from the heart. Don’t change, you are truly awesome!
My granny made this when I was a child and I've never been sure how she did it. Thank you for the recipe 😘 it takes me back to helping her in the kitchen at Christmas time.
I’m gonna make this today but it’s not gonna last long enough to go stale on the shelf I love hot cocoa any time of the year ❤️ thanks miss Mary
Honestly Mary i'm sure you're in my head. I was thinking about making a box of goodies each for my three daughters for christmas including jars of cookie and hot chocolate mixes. Then you upload videos for exactly that. Thankyou so much. Keep up the good work xxx
I love this mix, thanks Mary!Canned evaporated milk also makes smooth tasty hot chocolate. Add water or not. A few Tbsp of sugar in a sauce pan, 2 or 3 tsp cocoa, a tiny pinch of salt, a can of evap. and water to taste. Stir and heat. Nice in a pinch. I always keep a few cans on hand, especially when baking strikes my fancy on a snowy day and I'm out of milk.
Sounds great. My mom is from New Mexico, she always put a pinch of Chimo Chili in the hot chocolate, warmed it up.
Thank you for making this video I've been having a hard time finding Coco I love drinking cocoa with my coffee everyday thank you so much
...thanks for taking time to answer my question....you're the sweet one!
Now I am thinking of not only going into this for my living but a lot of your ideas are great for care packages as well. You know what you are giving and it's not overpriced junk food to be honest. Love in a jar.
I made this since I got married at 19 yr old and I just can't buy or drink the package anymore...I am going to try the Sucanat for sure...and everyone loves these as gifts! I only had one daycare child want the package stuff, but my 4 children all love it ☺ So glad u shared this!
I have just made this but in half cup/quarter cup ratio to see what it is like. All blended in a bullet for speed. It took 5 heaped teaspoons to taste great. I also added 1T of powdered coffee mate to the liquid and blended in the bullet. Oh my. Really great and saved me from going out to buy chocolate today! Thanks Mary
I bought a frother for my coffee creamer . No more lumps and whipped milk! Yum.
Who else’s eyes widened when she said 2 cups of sugar? 😂
Love your videos! I’ve been binge watching
If making important food…. I always look for this Sweet lady!
Love this recipe! I also like to put maybe a tablespoon More or less into a mug of coffee!! YUM!
well you are just a gem! I've been trying to build up my recipe box and i stumbled upon you and boy howdy am i glad i did! not only do i get a recipe, i get a little cooking lesson as well 😄
Thank you!! Love hot chocolate. You motivated me to put dry ingredients for corn bread into a jar...to speed up making it.
How cute! Thank you! I think I will make a big batch and give it to my neighbors this Christmas
What a precious lady. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and recipes.
I am so happy to see this video,I was trying to make my own mix and was reading 📖 the ingredients on the box 📦 hot chocolate and was turned off . I will be making my own hot cocoa from now on. Thank you ❤️😺🐶😊
I love your laid back sweet manner! Thank you for explaining absolutely everything, too! I definitely learned some things and now I know why my homemade coffee creamer and hot cocoa mixes haven't tasted like I wanted them to. They didn't taste nearly as good as just the cup by cup mixing as we go or bought mixes. Now I know just what to do to change it. Thank you!
Your kitchen is lovely and reminds me of my mom’s when I was growing up. On the counter behind you is a beautiful Yellow Aladin Tea Pot and if it was blue I would really feel like I was home. I have mom’s Blue Tea Pot and I’m so proud of it. Thanks for the Coco Recipe and the wonderful memories!
I’m definitely going to try this!
Thank you Mary. So lovely to learn from you.
You are so welcome!
You know how people may have their mothers, grandmothers, or aunties show them traditions or family recipes that have been passed down decades and decades? Well... unfortunately that’s not what I have so you’re filling that void! Thank you so much!!!
I made some of this one time. Very handy.
I love this ❣️ I personally would make a little out of the parchment paper, put the marshmallows in it and tie it off with a decorative twist tie or more ribbon so that they wouldn't have to put them in something else or have the marshmallows rolling all over the counter.
This is fantastic! Thank you so much for posting this!! It's too funny bc I was just thinking today "I wish Mary would come out with a homemade hot choc recipe so I don't need to buy the store bought" and here we are!! Fabulous. :)
How about that!! ❤️🤗❤️
Doing this for sure thanks for sharing Mary
What a wonderful gift idea, thank you!
This is right on time. Thanks again Miss Mary
Perfect!
Ma'am I knew you were a Christian forom the first 30 seconds of the video. I am a Lead baker at Piccadilly Caiteria in Louisiana and with that said, I LOVE hot cocoa and needed find a good recipie and here I found it. Now. I will have to look at you biscut mix and other recipies as I know they are good without even trying thenm becase we bot have the same father in heaven. Thank you Sister.
No matter what kind of day I am having, watching your videos warms my heart and makes me smile. Thanks for this recipe sweet friend! It is getting chilly at night and early morning here in Eastern Kentucky so perfect timing! God bless Mary!
A couple of teaspoons of hot chocolate in my hot coffee yummy
Always ❤️Thank you
I just made this last night and we absolutely fell in love with this mix. Thank you so much Mary for providing such a wonderful receipt and also so much valuable information.
Great idea!
This sounds delicious!
Sounds soo delicious !
This would go great with my homemade marshmallows. Thanks, Mary.
Sounds wonderful, thank you so very much sweetheart 😘
Thank you so much!😁
Made it with you. Used powdered sugar but tastes good.
What a sweet lady! Thank you 😊
I just mixed this up and, of course, tested it. Delicious! I made it with home freeze dried whole milk. I will be mixing up much more!
I have made hot chocolate mix before. I love the use of the arrowroot idea. I will try it. I like to use the dark chocolate powder. I also add vanilla powder. i want it in my pantry for the coming winter.
you are such a calming influence. bless your heart
Hi Mary, been with you a while now, but brain has only just kicked in lol. I now have a lovely diabetic friendly, energy boosting gorgeous instant hot chocolate and it's amazing. Used cacoa, sweetener (xylatol) and whole milk as I wanted a "dark" hot chocolate. Works like a dream, just used your proportions. Hot water and a whisk. Very happy diabetic subscriber, thank you
I really enjoyed this mix, I made the first batch with a powdered whole milk, Nido by Nestles and dark chocolate powder and I used a sugar substitute so there wouldn’t be any more than what was already in the milk. I made another batch with powdered fat free milk, regular chocolate powder and powdered sugar, I didn’t care for it as much. I used milk in both rather than water.
The Nido was more expensive but well worth the price, I found it during the beginning of Covid and it was the only one left on the shelf luckily I picked it up and saw the English writing, it is mostly in Spanish. Thanks Mrs. Mary!
Mary, you have the kindest, very comfortable teaching style. I love, love, love learning all your wonderful cooking secrets and extensive array of recipes. What a blessing you are! Thank you so much.
Thankyou for sharing your recipes. This will be good on a cold winters night. The individual servings a great idea for gifts.
Oh, Mary! This recipe reminds me of when I went off to college. My Mom thought you had to have this mix along with an immersion heater to heat your water with. Brings back great memories. I plan to make a batch of this to have available as we begin to get cooler here in North Texas. You've hit the ball out of the park with this one! Love to you!
Oh Lynn!! You are so sweet! So glad you're here!! Hope you enjoy the mix! Love, Mary
I just made this and it is wonderful!! Thank you so much
Love all your videos Mary !!!
How did I miss this? Why hadn't I thought of doing this sooner? Mary, you AMAZE me!!! This is so simple and the ingredients are so readily available that I can make this right now! In fact, I'm going to do a dairy-free version using coconut milk powder and coconut sugar. I might decrease the sugar and add powdered stevia to make up for the sweetness. So happy you shared this recipe! I'm also heading over to the coffee creamer recipe you did...gonna make some of that too! 👍🏾👍🏾
I made this recipe this morning. One thing I like to do is put hot cocoa mix in my coffee when it’s cold outside. I am absolutely in love with McDonalds peppermint mocha but thought if I made this with powdered sugar & drop a peppermint disc in to dissolve, the disc would add the extra sweetness needed. Well, no peppermints in the house that I could find so I added the 1/4 cup mix and a packet of stevia….pure awesomeness!!! I can’t wait to try it with peppermint cause the hot chocolate is divine & not overly sweet! Thank you Mary’s Nest for another home run recipe!!
I see this video was made a little over a year ago and year ago and I just had to tell you you are my new best friend I'm watching all of your videos one every day and I'm going to try to reprove reproduce all the things that you have done I am totally in awe I'm so glad that we are friends lol Hi from Maine
I love this! But, wait! 😳Dehydrated marshmallows?!?! Oh! oh! Running out of space here! 🤨Too, too many wonderful options, Mary!! 😝We JUST added shelves to closets, for food storage, (in preparation for a long, cold locked-down Canadian winter), and I’m filling them up quickly! Love it! Don’t want to coughed on in the stores! Have it all right here in my own home! Thanks for all your freely shared expertise, and the work you put into these videos. 🥰
Mary, I adore your valuable education!
Yum love chocolate. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for visiting!
I am very glad to have found your channel. I have learned a lot. Many thanks to you. 😊
In the 70's, we had a very popular instant hot chocolate mix, made it every winter. Somewhere along the way, I've lost the recipe but it used a can of Nestles chocolate mix for hot or cold drinks,, a container of coffee creamer, sugar and dry milk,,fatless. Cocao itself seems to separate and settle in a cup but the Nestles instant mix didn't do that. I think we used the same amount of mix over cup too, as your instructions. I'm thinking, later on, there was no coffee creamer but didn't miss it at all...maybe used more powdered milk. Didn't use whole dried milk either. Had to be careful too, that our hot water wasn't boiling because it will cook the instant milk.... I was thinking of this mix tonight just for us oldies....and suddenly you appeared on my UA-cam scanning. Thank you.
I really like this idea - especially the little jars. They will make great stocking stuffers! Thank you for this!
Absolutely!!
I absolutely loved this video. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for making this video I've been having a hard time finding Coco at times didn't even realize I had all the ingredients in my house
I have made homemade hot chocolate and it is delicious! To make it even healthier, used raw cacao instead of cocoa
Ohhhh---I'm doing this! This will add to our hygge atmosphere! I keep a little hot drink 'bar' in our dining room with our coffee pot, a slow cooker going with chaga in it (I refuse to call it tea as I am a coffee-lover. ;) ), and a basket of cocoa and tea blends. This will be a great addition! Thanks and God bless you.
Oh my!! That sounds so lovely and comforting!! Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Oh Mary...I had to comment on this recipe! My youngest daughter and I made this and it tastes EXCELLENT!!! We did make it sugar-free by using the equivalent of Sweetleaf Stevia packets, and the only thing we changed was the arrowroot powder. I saw another recipe online that used chocolate pudding mix as a thickener, so we used the same measurement of that instead of the arrowroot powder. Both my kiddos said this was a winner! 👍🏾👍🏾
WW here! Thanks for the sugar free chocolate pudding mix idea! Swiss Miss reduced calorie cocoa mix is almost $4 a box in my area! I buy Organic Cacao Powder at Walmart and add 1 tablespoon to the Swiss Miss and Trader Joe’s Organic Stevia Extract to the cup and stir. Turns it into 2 cups and the cacao powder has more chocolate flavor!😋 Joe’s Stevia is made of just 🍃 no stems or fillers and it has a tiny little spoon in the bottle to measure a tiny amount. Lasts forever! Thanks Mary for the recipe now I won’t be buying Swiss Miss any more! ❤️ watching you cook and I have learned so much!
So thankful, for this recipe!
thanks. Can't wait to try it!
Great video. I love this recipe. It is great in coffee too.
I learn so much from this channel. Everytime I think "I wonder if there's a way to make my own......", you always come with the video to show me how! Seriously....I was watching all these vi s? Surely there's a way to make your own"....and BAM! Here's the video!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Question: Can you use plant-based milk powder substitutes, measure for measure? Again, thank you.
I LOVE your channel, Mary!! Thank you for all you do.
It’s a chilly Oct evening and you made me go make myself a cup of hot cocoa; probably not as good as yours but I’m definitely trying this! Thanks Mary!!
Thank you so much!
Loved this, thanks so much. Great ideas!
ty
Thank you!
You bet!
Love the idea on the marshmallows! My grandkids always want hot chocolate with marshmallows. But I always end up having to throw out the left overs cause they only visit every few months. I started finally freezing them but I never thought about dehydrating them , yea I can have my freezer space back . Thanks
