Makes 3 1/2 cups

For coffee lovers, this is the perfect gift. There are so many ways to gift this. Pack the mixture in a small canister; we like to also include a nice cappuccino cup and a bar of chocolate to shave over the top of each cup. For a really big bang, include a bottle of kosher Frangelico liqueur or Heering Coffee Liqueur

1 cup powdered instant nondairy creamer
1 cup chocolate
