About the Recipe
I haven’t had hot chocolate in many, many years — since I eliminated dairy from my diet.
This year, my little one requested hot chocolate to enjoy post-snowman-building. So, I thought I’d try my hand at a simple and Healthy Hot Chocolate recipe.
Well, it turns out making your own hot chocolate is just as simple as buying the ready-made powdered options at the grocery store! I think we’ll be enjoying hot chocolate a bit more regularly at my house!
While we were experimenting, I found that pure coconut milk was a little too rich for my tastes. But others who tested it liked it. So, if you tend toward enjoyment of a creamier hot chocolate, in the coconut milk version of this recipe you can substitute the 1 cup of water for additional coconut milk.
If you like a little bit of kick, some ginger would be a welcome addition to this brew as well!
As we’re firmly planted in winter here in Ontario… maybe you and yours will be able to get outside for some winter fun, and warm up afterwards with this tasty and chocolately blend!
