5 Ingredient Hot Chocolate
Ingredients
Hot Chocolate
- 1 cup milk, of choice (the milk you use will alter the texture/thickness of the hot chocolate)
- ΒΌ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup or coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao powder
- pinch salt
Whipped Cream (optional)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp sugar or monk fruit
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- If using whipped cream, start by whipping the heavy cream until fluffy.
- Then, add in the sugar or monk fruit and the vanilla and whip until desired consistency (should only take a few seconds as your whipped cream should be formed when whipping the cream alone).
- For the hot chocolate, combine all of the ingredients together in a pot on the stove and whisk until no cocoa/cacao clumps remain.
- Once warm, pour into your favorite mug, top with whipped cream if desired, and enjoy!
