Here’s what’s inside:
– 6 red cups
– 6 hot chocolate pouches

The baskets, cups, hot chocolate, marshmallows and spoons were all from the Dollar Tree and the total expense for each basket came to only $2.50.  This cost excludes the white candy melts ($2 with coupon from Michael’s) and sprinkles as I already had both of them on hand.
