Well, look at that! We are already in the thick of the holiday season. Gifts are being wrapped, packages are being sent, quality time together is being spent, and, well, let’s be honest… it is easy to sometimes lose ourselves in this jumble of holiday goodness.
I wanted to share a super quick and uber delicious hot cocoa recipe to help center the mind and give you that last boost of energy to get you through the rest of this holiday season…
Classic {Loco} Hot Cocoa
Here is what you’ll need
1 ounce dark chocolate (I used 85%)
1 tablespoon Loco Cocoa Herbal Powder
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
12 oz milk of choice
1 tablespoon sweetener of choice (I used date syrup)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
Whipped Cream to top
Here is what you’ll do
1. In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, add in the dark chocolate, Loco Hot Cocoa, cocoa powder, milk, sweetener, vanilla, and salt. stir with whisk until everything has melted and the mixture begins to steam (about 5-7 minutes).
2. Once everything is heated up, pour into your favorite mug, top with whipped cream and enjoy!
I hope this cocoa makes it to your kitchen this weekend, you’ll be extra happy it did ;)
Big Love,
Joey
