• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 2  cups non-fat powdered milk
• 1 1⁄2 cups  vanilla protein powder (equal to 6 scoops)
• 1⁄2 cup Splenda sugar substitute
• 6  ounces  sugar free hot spiced cider mix (6 pkts)
• 3  tablespoons  sugar free butterscotch dry pudding mix (1/2 box, equal to approx 3 tablespoons)
• 1  tablespoon cinnamon
• 1  tablespoon nutmeg

Directions

1. Combine all ingredients together and mix well and store in an airtight container. When you're ready to make a mug of cider, here's how:
2. Add 1/2 cup of mixture to mug. Add a splash of cold water and mix well until you have a smooth paste with no lumps. Slowly add hot water and continue mixing to eliminate any lumps. I have large mugs so I used about 10-12oz of water per batch. If you have smaller mugs, then reduce the amount of dry mix.
3. If you want to mix your drink the "automated" way (like I do), here's how. Add 1/2c mixture to a blender jar and add the splash of cold water. Turn on the blender on low and let it mix and then slowly add hot water from the tea kettle while the blender is still whirling. Pour into a mug and enjoy.
