Enjoy an easy, rich and creamy Healthier hot Chocolate, without the guilt! it’s refined sugar free and Vegan, plus is made in around 15 minutes!

To top, I dusted with cacao powder and piped whipped coconut cream, and when dissolved into the chocolate, it makes amazing creamier texture

Ingredients you’ll need

• Milk. Use your milk of choice
• Cacao powder. Unsweetened, and a good quality cacao makes all the difference!
• Coconut sugar. I used organic
• Vanilla extract. Good quality goes a long way!
• Cinnamon. Ground
• Salt. To enhance the flavors!
• Coconut milk. Canned and unsweetened. Refrigerate overnight (optional, for coconut whipped cream topping)

How to make it

Over a medium-sized sauce pan, heat all of your ingredients (excluding coconut milk cans) mixing until completely incorporated.

For the coconut whipped cream, whip the cold hardened coconut milk without the coconut water, until light and fluffy. Pipe on top of hot chocolate and sprinkle with cacao powder if desired.

Substitutions

You can use whichever type of milk you like with this recipe

Also, you could make it sugar free; just add instead of the coconut sugar any sweetener of your choice. Add little by little, tasting after each addition, until reaching desired sweetness.

Notes

* With the coconut milk, when refrigerated for enough time, the rich coconut cream will have floated to the top and the coconut water stays at the bottom of the can. For the coconut whipped cream, you'll need the hardened coconut milk without the coconut water
