Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk any kind (we used unsweetened almond milk)
  • 1- oz. dark chocolate
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup or more, to taste
  • pinch of Himalayan sea salt

Instructions

  • Place almond milk into a small saucepan. Heat over medium/high heat.
  • Once warm, add dark chocolate, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt. Use a whisk or handheld milk frother to mix until the cocoa powder is dissolved and combined.
  • Continue heating and whisking hot chocolate over medium/high heat until just before boiling. You want to make sure not to burn the milk, but that the dark chocolate melts and combines.
  • Once the dark chocolate has fully melted and the hot chocolate is hot, serve with your favorite whipped cream and enjoy!
