Healthy Hot Cocoa Mix

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Total Time 6 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ C cocoa powder
  • 2 TBSP coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp. stevia brown sugar*
  • 2 tsp. cane sugar or sweetener*
  • ¼ tsp. sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Combine everything in a jar or container with an airtight lid
  • Break up the brown sugar with a measuring spoon, then secure the lid and shake to mix it all together
  • Heat up a milk of your choice and whisk one hefty, rounded tablespoon of mix per 8 oz. of milk (I usually do ~1.5 TBSP for a 10 oz. mug)
  • Top with marshmallows, whipped cream, leave it plain, or place it in the fridge overnight to let the flavor develop even more, then reheat and re-whisk it for a richer, creamier chocolate flavor

Notes

  • *Stevia brown sugar: can also use regular brown sugar or date sugar
  • *Cane sugar or sweetener: powdered monk fruit sweetener or similar sweeteners can be used in place of cane sugar
  • *2. No need for a blender or food processor to mix the ingredients together, it actually makes for a thinner, less creamy cocoa
  • This makes ~7-8 cups of cocoa, depending on the size of the mug and how rounded the tablespoons are. The recipe can also be easily cut down to make 1-2 servings: 1 TBSP cocoa powder, 2 ½ tsp. sweetener (1 ½ tsp. coconut sugar, ½ tsp. stevia brown sugar, ½ tsp. cane sugar), and a pinch of sea salt.
