Hot Chocolate Cones

So today is not only Valentine's Day, it's also a great day for hot chocolate (for much of the country, anyway...you stay classy San Diego). So let's combine the two and see what we get.

And that would be Hot Chocolate Cones! They're cocoa, mini marshmallows, mini chocolate chips, and a red gum drop placed inside cone-shaped cellophane wrappers. Makes a cool gift:

3/4 cup cocoa mix
two 6" x 12" cone-shaped cellophane bags
2 clear rubberbands
scissors
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
3/4 cup mini marshmallows
1 large red gumdrop

Pour cocoa into one of the bags. Close bag with rubber band and trim it one inch above band. Place that bag inside of a second bag and flatten the top. Layer chocolate chips and marshmallows and top with the gumdrop. Secure with the other rubberband.
