Instructions:
- Fold towel into fourths lengthwise. (4” wide)
- Roll folded towel up into tight roll.
- Tuck Hot Chocolate packet into the end of the roll so that it isn’t visible.
- Wrap bottom 2/3rds of rolled up towel with brown ribbon. Tape wider ribbon to towel with double sided tape (or scotch tape on back-side of ribbon) along the bottom edge, so that ribbon is taped to itself at the ends. Use the second smaller piece layered above it. (The ribbon should end up covering 2.5-3” of the towel.)
- Carefully insert wrapped towel into mug, so that ribbon does not reveal any towel along bottom edge.
- Pull up on center of wrapped up towel to make the towel look like whipped cream.
