Whisk together all ingredients in a large bowl. Working in two (or more) batches, depending on the size of your food processor, pulse the ingredients in a food processor until the chocolate is finely ground. Store the dry mix in an airtight container for up to 3 months. (If your food processor is large enough, ditch using an extra bowl and throw all the ingredients in the food processor at once.)

To make hot cocoa, put 1/3 cup of the cocoa mix in a mug and stir in 1 cup of hot milk or almond milk (water works ok but the hot chocolate isn't as creamy or flavorful). Top with whipped cream or miniature marshmallows, if desired.

How To Make Powdered Milk At Home

L milk (skimmed or full fat/whole milk will work)

Pour room temperature milk into a big oven-safe dish. It&#039;s best to keep the milk at shallow levels, to dry out quickly. I tend to keep it at a maximum of an inch.

Depending on the size of your oven and/or dish, you can pour the milk into several dishes. *

Next, place the dishes into your oven at its lowest temperature. If it can go as low as 120-140ºF/50-60ºC, then that&#039;s ideal. Otherwise, select the lowest temperature that you can, using the fan-assisted option. 

If you don&#039;t have a fan option then leave the oven cracked open slightly, to let the evaporating liquid out so the milk dries quicker.

As the water evaporates, the milk will become pastier and pastier until finally, it becomes a thick paste. Make sure the milk paste doesn't turn brown while drying - that's a sign that the temperature is too high. 

Stir from time to time - this allows the water to evaporate evenly, especially when the milk starts turning to a paste. **

Once you get the milk paste, spread it out on a tray or over parchment paper and return to the oven or dehydrator to finish drying the milk.

Once the paste is completely dry, you will be able to easily remove it from the tray/baking sheet. At this point, it will be easily snappable, with no bend.

Grind the flakes into powder in a spice grinder or blender then pass the dehydrated milk powder through a fine-mesh sieve. Then grind the bigger pieces again- that way you'll achieve a very fine powder.

Store the powdered milk in an airtight container. Make sure there is no moisture in it at all and keep stored in a cool, dark place. Milk powder can be kept for months, if not years this way.
