Cacao Hot Chocolate

• •
  4 cups milk of choice
• •
  1/4 cup Plant Junkie Organic Cacao Powder
• •
  1/4 cup maple syrup, honey, or your choice of sugar, adjusting to your desired sweetness
• •
  Optional toppings: whipped cream, marshmallows, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of cinnamon or cayenne for heat

Directions

1. 1. In a saucepan, combine the Plant Junkie Cacao Powder, sweetener, and cold milk of choice. Whisk until the ingredients are completely smooth. As the milk heats, the cacao powder will dissolve into the milk.
2. 2. Place the saucepan over medium heat, whisking constantly to ensure an even distribution of the Plant Junkie Cacao Powder.
3. 3. Continue heating until the mixture is steaming and a light simmer begins. Avoid bringing it to a full boil, as this can scorch the milk.
4. 4. Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and add your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream or marshmallows.
5. 5. Enjoy your Cacao Hot Chocolate!
