9 Reviews of Snowman Soup Mix in a Jar

From: jenm42

On Dec 22, 2005

This sounded great, was fun to make, and looks attractive in a jar. But the resulting cocoa is so sweet that it's almost undrinkable. It tastes like hot sugar water with a hint of chocolate flavoring. Even my four year old won't drink it! When no one would drink it after repeated tries, I added some powdered cocoa to the remaining mixture in my jar hoping to beef up the chocolate flavor, but it didn't help enough. I'm going to throw away my jar of this and try something else.

    This is one of the best mixes I have ever made! I am just in heaven right now. I made up some jars for christmas gifts and kept me one and I am having a very nice cup of cocoa right now! Thank you so much for sharing this outstanding mix!

    It is good, but it does not have a strong chocolate taste. I figured with the pudding mix it would be chocolate-y! But its really not. I'm going to play around with it some before I give it as presents. Oh, and I threw it all in my food processor to break it up a little becuase I found that it didnt all dissolve so great. Maybe I'll do less powdered sugar and more nesquik? I'll post what I discover to work best!

    When it's so cold that you holler and whoop, It's time to bring out the Snowman Soup! Pour the packet in a mug. Add marshmallows too. And throw in these kisses that are special just for you. Now add some hot water and use the cane to stir it. Sip slowly and soon you'll feel the warm winter spirit!

    This recipe is very easy to make, and makes a great gift. I was married in December, and for the kids we made up some snowman soup and put it in a mug for them to make when they got home. Thanks for posting.

    i just made these for gifts and had to try some (i tried it with milk) and it was wonderful. I did add extra unsweetened cocoa powder for an extra chocolaty flavor and made a double batch. Thank you for posting!!!

    This is TASTEY!!!! I made this for gift baskets and just had to try some myself, and I am so glad I did. I had to make more for the whole family; for those cold upstate, NY nights.
