Maybe some mini marshmallows, or there's another thread on here somewhere where people were talking about where you culd pick up cheap mini whisks or chocolate graters. I don't know if it's appropriate for who you're giving them to, but when I did these last year I added a little miniature Tia Maria.

To wrap them, stick everything in the mug (use some tissue paper in the bottom if you need to life everything up a bit for it all to be seen). Place your mug in the centre of a big square of cellophane, then just bring all the edges up, and secure it with some ribbon.

What about a chocolate stirrer or candy cane to stir?

Try something like these cellophane gift bags and some Christmas curling ribbon (eBay and other Internet sites), aslo for large item you can buy heat shrink bags (use a hairdryer to shrink the bag to fit the gift and then add ribbons, bows etc.

Maybe you could include a small box of chocolates like Celebrations if the mug needs filling up. I might make some christmas mugs for presents as they are cheap and look beautifully presented in cellophane.
