Skiped the baking cocoa The kids loved it cant wait to make it again

It was much better after adding the powered sugar as suggested by the previous person. It still seems as though something else is missing but is a nice treat.

Reviewed on Aug. 16, 2011 by marciedarcie

The sugar all went to the bottom and the cocoa overpowered the cinnamon. We ended up just eating the unused pretzels and M&Ms.

Reviewed on Aug. 21, 2010 by srmbailey

My kids and I made this today for family movie night. We agreed that it was a little bitter from the cocoa, so we added a couple of tablespoons of powdered sugar. It looked a bit dusty, but tasted much better.
