Hi. I would recommend go out and buy the book by Gooseberry Patch called "Gifts for Giving". It's full of recipes for cookie mixes, hot chocolate and coffee mixes, and also bean soup and other soups and things. It's a great book. You can just go to Gooseberrypatch.com to get it. It's a great cookbook, all of their books are great! Look out! You might get hooked and want all of them like I do!
Good luck!
