* Orange-Cinnamon Sip - Add 1 tsp. of grated orange peel and 2 tsp. cinnamon
* Scotchy's Cup - Decrease chocolate chips by 1 cup, and add 1 cup butterscotch chips instead!
* Peanut Butter Cup - Decrese chocolate chips asabove, and add 1 cup peanutbutter chips.
* Minty Hot Chocolate - Decrease chocolate chipsas above, and add 1 cup mint- chocolate chips.
* Rasberry-Coco-Loco - Decrease chocolate chipsas above, and add 1 cup of Raspberry-chocolate chips.
* Milk Chocolate Chocolate - Decrease chocolate chips as above, and add 1 cup of Milk Chocolate chips!
* Malted Milk Chocolate - Prepare as for Milk Chocolate Chocolate, except substitute 1/2 cup of malted milk powder for 1/2 cup of powdered milk.
