Nothing is better on a cold morning than a cup of hot chocolate. Unfortunately for the dairy free individuals, pre-made hot chocolate mix is filled with powdered milk.
I prefer to use almond milk in my hot chocolate. When soy milk is heated it tends to taste really grassy and pretty gross. Even when you add cocoa, you can still taste the soy. I bring the almond milk to a very slow simmer on the stove. Heating it quickly on the stove or in the microwave can make the almond milk seperate and chunk up.
Here's my recipe for almond milk hot chocolate:
a mug full of original almond milk
2 1/2 tablespoons cocoa
1 tablespoon sugar
Mix the cocoa and sugar in the mug. Heat the almond mix gently over low heat. Once the milk is warm, pour a little into the mug and mix the cocoa into a paste. Add the rest of the milk, stirring until the cocoa is completely dissolved. Top with marshmallows and enjoy!
