Cozy, creamy, and pure bliss: our Chocolate Sea Salt Almond Butter hot chocolate is just what the doctor ordered to cure these winter blues. Made with no refined sugar and antioxidant-packed cocoa and medjool dates, it’s a treat that makes you feel as good as it tastes.
If you're feeling like jazzing it up, add a dollop of whipped cream, a big marshmallow or two, or a sprinkle of cinnamon or sea salt. You deserve it!
INGREDIENTS
-
4 medjool dates, pitted
-
2 cups milk of choice
-
2 Tbsp Chocolate Sea Salt Almond Butter
-
3 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
-
1 tsp instant espresso (optional, but makes for a richer chocolate taste!)
PREPARATION
-
If your dates aren’t soft, soak them in hot water for about 10 minutes, drain, and remove.
-
In a blender or food processor, combine milk, cocoa powder, instant espresso, dates (softened if necessary), and Chocolate Sea Salt Almond Butter. Blend until all ingredients are combined into one cohesive, smooth liquid. It should take about a minute.
-
Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and heat on medium-low heat until warmed to your ideal temperature.
-
Pour into mugs, add toppings (optional), and enjoy!
