For those looking to cut down on sugar and calories, the easy homemade recipe can be adjusted for simple swap-outs such as using non-fat milk or an alternative milk such as almond or soy. Swap the milk chocolate out with lower-fat dark chocolate and then add the stevia separately to taste. You could try using two bars of stevia-based chocolate bars like those from Lily's Sweets instead of the unsweetened dark chocolate and stevia powder.
INGREDIENTS
SERVES 4
- 4 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa
- 160 g Dark Chocolate
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 tsp Stevia Powder
DIRECTIONS
1
Over low heat, warm the milk until small bubbles form but before the milk begins boiling. Be sure to not scald the milk or it won't have the best flavor.
2
Then add salt, cocoa, chocolate, and stir in until melted and combined.
3
Remove from the heat and serve.
