HOMEMADE HOT CHOCOLATE
Ever since I stopped using sugar, I have been exploring natural sweetener options. And, I must say that monk fruit is by far my ultimate favorite. A tiny little pinch goes a long way. You’d be surprised to know; it is 300 times sweeter than sugar and leaves no aftertaste.
Since I enjoy having a mug of hot cocoa on damp cold days, I searched high and low for something that had no sugar and no synthetic sweetener. What a huge disappointment! So, I immediately began searching for recipes and honestly that was dismal as well.
When I find myself at a standstill is when I spring into action. And, through trial and error and testing and retesting, I came up with this filling and satisfying treat which uses no sugar.
It is simple and easy to make. This recipe is for one serving. However, if you want to share this gourmet cocoa with friends and family it can easily be doubled, tripled or quadrupled.
The Best Hot Chocolate Recipe
This decadent homemade hot chocolate recipe is great for those choosing a low carb or keto lifestyle. Carbohydrates are low, fats high and the pure natural sweetener monk fruit won’t interfere with blood glucose levels. This is a true win-win.
The high fat also helps remove hunger. I especially like to have a cup mid-afternoon. It’s a nice way to take a deep breath and pause. And, if you are usually starved by dinner like me, this will help immensely. No more eating everything in sight while preparing dinner!
