Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine unsweetened almond milk and heavy cream over medium heat.
Step 2
Stir in the cocoa powder, erythritol, and salt. Whisk continuously to ensure the cocoa powder fully dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
Step 3
Continue heating until the mixture is hot but not boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching at the bottom.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the vanilla extract and sugar-free chocolate chips, if using, until the chocolate chips are melted and the mixture is creamy.
Step 5
Taste the hot chocolate and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding a little more erythritol.
Step 6
Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and serve immediately, optionally topping with whipped cream for extra creaminess.
