Have you ever had a Dusty Road Sundae? I used to love these when I was a little girl and Ma had Malted Milk in the pantry. If there was no Malted Milk Powder, I used Nesquik Chocolate Drink Mix. Do you remember that stuff? A Dusty Road Sundae is a scoop of vanilla ice cream dusted with Malted Milk Powder and drizzled with chocolate syrup. When Kraft offered this gift package of their latest products, I said, “yes.” Do you know why? For the Jet Puffed Vanilla Mallow Bits- I know, I am easy to please, huh? But these Mallow Bits brought me right back to my childhood Count-Chocula days with those teeny tiny crunchy marshmallows- I had to have them!
Hot Cocoa Dusty Road Sundaes
Ingredients:
1 cup Malted Milk Powder
1/2 cup powdered milk
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup Kraft Jet-Puffed Mallow Bits, vanilla
Hot Fudge Sauce, heated
Caramel Sauce, heated
Vanilla Ice cream
Instructions:
In a quart sized mason jar, shake the first 6 ingredients until evenly distributed.
Pour about 2 tablespoonfuls of chocolate or caramel sauce in the bottom of small mason jars or bowls, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and dust with Hot Cocoa Mix and a few more Mallow Bits and chocolate chips. Serve immediately.
Note- to make Hot Cocoa, add 1/3 cup mix to a large mug and pour in 8 ounces boiling water, stir and serve. Have extra Mallow Bits for sprinkling your Hot Cocoa as the ones in the mix melted quickly, and we don’t want tears now do we?

a bag of popcorn
I love a good old PB and J sandwich for an on-the-go snack.
My favorite on the go snack…a crispy, crunchy apple!
I like to make some granola with some ground flax seeds and some almonds, raisins, some pecans, oats, a tad bit of agave syrup raspberry or strawberry depending upon the weather and what season, some carob chips, also some dried cherries..I make up a batch and bag it up in the freezer in a big bag I have vacuumed to make sure all the air is out of it..It is wonderful for on the go and to have for a quick breakfast a tiny amount goes a long long way…I am Mary Sampson, momanddad00@clear.net and love love love your blog, would love to win the Kraft package, oh, my goodness…thanks for your blog and the giveaway!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool giveaway! My fave on the go snack would be some type of cracker like goldfish.

A bottle of water is my favorite on-the-go snack. No seriously, it washes down my really favorite choice of Rice Krispie treats.
Cocoa roasted almonds.

My snack of choice is probably popcorn if I'm in a rush for something crunchy. And salty. And buttery.

I just found your blog and really enjoy looking at it.
I carry a sandwich bag of nuts around with me pretty much all of the time. Usually walnuts, but almonds at times.
