I love hot chocolate. Since I am trying to watch my dairy intake because I am breastfeeding, I have been making my own hot chocolate. Of course you can modify it based on your tastes, but here is my recipe!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. Almond milk- I used store bought
2 tsp. Cocoa
6-8 drops vanilla stevia
dash of cayenne pepper (optional)
Step 1: pour milk into a mug and heat in microwave on high for 2 1/2 minutes. You could instead do part water and part milk depending on your liking. I prefer mine creamy and thick and like it all milk; however there are times I will do 3/4 milk, 1/4 water if I'm low on milk or trying to conserve.
Step 2: add cocoa and mix well.
Step 3: add 6 drops vanilla stevia. Add more or less to your liking. I don't like my drinks too sweet, so I stick with 6 drops. Also play with other flavors. I'm not sure what flavors are all available, but I know there is a variety- raspberry, or peppermint ight be good. Add a dash of cayenne if you like a little kick. ENJOY!!
