Looking for a last-minute holiday gift idea for the helpful neighbor across the street?

Or maybe a fun gift to take to the family from church who invited you over to play board games next week?

I’ve got the perfect idea! A super EASY but really cute “Cocoa & a Bite” Holiday Gift inspired by B-Inspired Mama partner, Entenmann’s® Little Bites® Limited Edition Butter Cookie Muffins!

Let’s check it out…

Cocoa and a Bite - An Easy-Peasy DIY Hot Chocolate Jar Gift any Family will Love - B-Inspired Mama

Cocoa & a Bite! (Little Bites & Hot Chocolate in a Jar Gift)

This snack and hot chocolate in a jar craft looks super Pinterest-y, yet it requires almost NO craft supplies. No annoying hot glue strings or trips to the craft store. I did use some stickers and a cute gift tag, but you could skip those, too! This DIY snack and hot chocolate in a jar gift couldn’t get easier or cuter. Here’s how to make it…

Ingredients & Supplies:

  • 1 large (1 – 1.5 gallons) glass jar or canister with lid
  • 1 box (with 5 pouches) Entenmann’s® Little Bites® Butter Cookie Muffins
  • 1 (approx. 10 oz.) bag mini marshmallows
  • 1 box (approx. 10 envelopes) hot cocoa mix
  • 1 box mini candy canes (optional, if using as a holiday gift)
  • 1 gift tag
  • washi tape (optional)
  • twine or ribbon (optional)
  • 1 sheet alphabet stickers (optional)

Steps:

Did I mention this was EASY?! Oh, I did. Okay. So, first, you just put the bag of mini marshmallows down into the bottom of the glass jar first.

Then, add a layer of Little Bites® Butter Cookie Muffins pouches. You can obviously use other delicious Entenmann’s® Little Bites® varieties for this hot chocolate in a jar gift idea, but these Butter Cookie Muffins are perfect for dunking in rich hot cocoa! But as part of the Little Bites® Seasonal Favorites line, they’re only available for a short time this holiday season, so grab some quick before they’re gone!

Next, add the hot chocolate mix envelopes on top of the Little Bites® pouches in a nice even layer.

Finally, fill up the rest of the jar with mini candy canes! If you’re not planning it for a holiday gift, use a different candy instead, like chocolate truffles. Yum!

Then, just add “Cocoa & a Bite” with the alphabet stickers on the lid or the side of the jar. And a gift tad if you’d like. And this super cute hot chocolate in a jar gift is ready for a family to enjoy!

So easy, right? And isn’t it cool knowing you’re giving a gift that’s encouraging fun family time making hot chocolate and enjoying a snack together as a family?! Love it!

As I mentioned above, these Butter Cookie Muffins are the perfect complement to creamy hot chocolate! But this Seasonal Favorite is only available for a limited time, so make sure to get them while you can.

They are buttery delicious, yet each conveniently portable pouch has only 190 calories. Little Bites® Butter Cookie Muffins never contain high fructose corn syrup or trans-fat, so they are a snack we can feel good about giving – and enjoying!
