Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time5 minutes
Total Time10 minutes
Servings: 1 serving

Ingredients

  • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder- 2 tablespoons per serving.
  • Sugar Alternative- 1 ½ tablespoons equivalent to sugar.
  • Unsweetened almond milk or skim milk- 1 cup per serving. You could use water instead but don't expect the best tasting cocoa ever.
  • Vanilla Extract- ¼ teaspoon per serving.
  • Salt- ¼ teaspoon can omit if avoiding salt.
  • Optional- Yay- Sugar Free Marshmallows- see post for details...

Instructions

  • In a sauce pan over medium heat, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar alternative, and milk (or alternative).
  • When your cocoa is well blended and warm, remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla extract.
  • Serve with your optional sugar free marshmallow. Sometimes, I will use a bit of whipped cream.
