Are you using dark brown sugar or light?
Thank you for sharing!! Can’t wait to try it!
Stephanie Brubaker says
I use light because that’s what I keep on hand. Either one would work though!

I’ve always made a mix with dry milk. When I mixed this up, I put the required amount in a cup of hot water, since I assumed it would be mixed with water too.. It tasted too chocolatey to me, but my husband thought it was good. I then read the recipe and saw I should have added it to milk. Instead, I mixed dry milk in the mix. I didn’t measure, just until it tasted good in a cup of hot water. I also added cinnamon and turmeric to the mix. They’re really good for you and I add them to everything I can. We use our Keurig for hot water, so I didn’t want to heat milk.
