Grandma Hessing's Hot Chocolate

My friend Amy gave us a jar full of this last year, & I knew I had to make it myself this year. It's mellow, malty, creamy hot chocolate - kind of the polar opposite of the Shake Shack recipe that I love so much, but equally delicious. We tripled the recipe (!!) & are giving away jars to our friends & neighbors this Christmas (we basically bought out The Container Store's supply of cute holiday jars). 

The recipe is huge! Making it once made enough to fill seven 25-ounce containers

1 large can Quik chocolate drink mix (30 oz)
1 box instant powdered milk (8 qt)
1 lb. powdered sugar (2 1/2 cups)
1 large bottle powdered cream (22 oz.)
2 1/2 cups instant malt (original)
2 tsp. salt

Mix ingredients well. Will fit into a 5 quart tupperware container. Mix 1/4 cup chocolate mix to 1 cup hot water or milk.
