Hot chocolate is a serious comfort food but one I’ve avoided for years because of all the unhealthy ingredients (loads of sugar, processed cocoa or worse yet a store bought powder mix loaded with God knows what!). NO MORE! I took the bull by the horns (or reindeer…ha ha) and created a recipe that is not only sugar free, it’s delicious and made with one of the top super foods……RAW CACAO! (Look up all the health benefits including weight loss).
I’m super excited to share this with all of you so (if you’ve been avoiding this “comfort food”) you can indulge in a rich cuppa cocoa again.
INGREDIENTS :
2 TB. Cream, Half-N-Half, or *DF Coconut Cream
8 Smidgen Scoops stevia powder
1 1/2 TB. Raw Cacao Powder *cocoa can be used
1 1/2 C. Unsweetened Almond Milk or milk of choice
10 Drops Dark Chocolate Stevia
DIRECTIONS :
1. Heat milk in microwave or stove top.
2. Place the cocoa powder & stevia powder in the bottom of desired cup and mix together. Pour cream over the top and smash together to form a thick paste.
3. After its blended (no need to be smooth, just so mixture is no longer “powdery”) pour heated milk over the top.
4.Squeeze in 10 drops of Dark Chocolate Stevia or flavor of choice. Stir to combine.
5. Top with whipped cream if desired.
ENJOY this sugar-free Hot Cooca treat knowing your actually eating something that’s really good for you!
VARIATIONS: Omit Dark Chocolate Stevia and replace with 10 drops of Stevia Select liquid stevia flavors (choose 1 or mix it up for variety!) Hazelnut, Vanilla, Cinnamon, or Caramel.
