Hot Chocolate Recipes homemade easy

INGREDIENTS

  •  2/3 cup (2.75 ounces) natural, unsweetened cocoa powder or Dutch-process cocoa powder
  •  1 1/3 cups (10 ounces) granulated sugar
  •  1/8 teaspoon salt
  •  2/3 cup water
  •  6 cups milk (dairy milk or non-dairy milk, like almond milk)
  •  1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  •  Half and half or additional milk, if desired

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a 4-quart saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, salt and water. Stirring constantly, bring this mixture to a boil. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, moderating heat, if needed, so it doesn't burn.
  2. Stir in the milk and vanilla and heat until very warm without boiling or simmering. Serve immediately with additional half and half or milk to cool down the hot chocolate and add extra creaminess OR transfer the hot chocolate to a slow cooker and keep warm (warm or low setting) for several hours.

NOTES

My favorite blend is to use half natural, unsweetened cocoa powder (like Hershey's) and half Dutch-process cocoa powder (like Ghirardelli dark or Droste or Trader Joe's) for a richer, sweeter chocolate flavor. This is DELICIOUS with almond milk in place of dairy milk (and if you want an extra chocolatey boost, try using the dark chocolate almond milk instead - holy moly). If your cocoa powder is extra lumpy, you might want to sift it into the saucepan to avoid any lumps. 
If you want a peppermint version, add a couple drops of peppermint oil or extract with the milk and vanilla.

No Bake Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls (Paleo, Vegan, Low Carb) Ingredients 2 cups smooth peanut butter 3/4 cup coconut flour 1/2 cup sticky sweetener of choice  2 cups sugar-free chocolate chips Instructions Line a large plate or tray with parchment paper and set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine all your ingredients, except for chocolate chips, and mix until fully combined. If the batter is too thick and crumbly, add some liquid (water or milk) slowly until a thick, formable batter remains.  Using your hands, form small balls and place on the lined plate or tray. Freeze for 10 minutes. While the peanut butter balls are firming up, melt your sugar-free chocolate chips. Remove the peanut butter protein balls from the freezer and using two forks, dip each ball in the melted chocolate until completely covered. Repeat until all the balls are covered in chocolate. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has firmed up.  Source this recipe  thebigmansworld
