Warm Christmas Eve Wishes and Treats!


Celebrate this Christmas Eve with your loved ones and a warm cup of cocoa. Christmas is a great time to enjoy the wonderful taste and aroma of chocolate!

Here is an easy Cocoa mix you can share with your family and friends. Double the ingredients and make even more! Enjoy!

CRACKED COCOA

To one-third a cup of Baker's Cracked Cocoa (sometimes called "Cocoa Nibs") use three cups of cold water. If you can't find Baker's , just use your favorite brand of chocolate ( shaved into thin slices. ) Or - try chocolate chips!

Enjoy the warm aroma as you cook slowly at least one hour--the longer the better.

Then strain the liquid and add one cup (or more if desired) of milk, and serve very hot. Do not allow the mixture to boil after milk has been added.

Enjoy a warm cup of cocoa with your family and friends!

Merry Christmas!

"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." Luke 2:8-14
