Cafe Au Lait Coffee Mix

This is a really easy, fast gift. It makes a great hostess gift, a gift to give a co-worker, neighbors etc. I made this jar for Logan's principle for Christmas. A little bribery never hurts. I think I'll be using this idea a lot in the coming year. Keep in mind if you buy all of the ingredients at Costco you could make enough for everyone on your gift list or office for dirt cheap!

Cafe Au Lait Coffee Mix
1 1/2 cup nondairy creamer
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup instant coffee
Put all ingredients into a blender or food processor; blend until powder consistency. Put mixture into an attractive glass jar with a lid. Include a gift card with the following instructions:

To make Cafe Au Lait Coffee, mix 1/3 cup mix with 2/3 cup boiling water for individual servings

You're cracking me up with the 'bribery.' It's awful, but this is the first year ever (in the six years that J's been in school) that we didn't give his teacher a gift... I know it sounds really bad... it's just not the same this year.
