Mmmm... Hot Chocolate ~ 6g

"Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart." ~Unknown

This happens to be one of my favorite quotes. And very appropriate on a mug of hot chocolate which helps to bring about a wonderful sense of 'peace'. 

This hot chocolate is thick and rich - the perfect ending to a stressful (or cold) day!


Ingredients:
1 C unsweetened almond & coconut milk blend
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp splenda
1/2 tsp almond or vanilla extract
Dash of salt (be very careful with this dash!)

Pour the milk in a saucepan and heat at medium on the stove for a minute or two.

Whisk in the cocoa powder and splenda.  Continue whisking over medium heat for another two minutes or so - or until all of the powder is dissolved.

Add the remaining ingredients and let simmer for another minute or two before removing it from the heat.
