Tonight I worked for 2 1/2 hours on an IEP for one of my students. I have two that have to be done this week and one for next week. I also have to have my grades in by next Friday. Sonny cooked dinner, fried pork chops and mashed sweet potatoes. I ate way too much. I also made a double batch of Chocolate Mint Coffee Creamer and put it in some cute little recycled jars. I will decorate these and give them as Christmas gifts to my coffee loving friends. I had to give it a taste test .. . . I may have to keep a jar for myself. Here is the recipe: Chocolate Mint Coffee Creamer Makes 3 3/4 cups creamer 1 c. nondairy powdered creamer 1 c. chocolate-flavored Nesquik ¾ c. finely crushed peppermints ½ c. instant nonfat dry milk powder ½ c. confectioners’ sugar Garnish: chocolate-dipped Peppermint sticks In a medium bowl, combine creamer, Nesquik, Peppermints, milk powder, and sugar. Spoon Mixture into gift jars of choice. To serve, stir 1 T. creamer into 1 c. hot coffee. Garnish with chocolate-dipped peppermint Sticks, if desired.
