Vegan MoFo, Day 18: Hot Chocolate Makes Me Happy!


Sometimes I just want some dang hot chocolate. Now is definitely one of those times.
And I want some whipped "cream." Pronto.

I used the coconut whip recipe from Healthy. Happy. Life. It didn't quite WHIP for me, but I think that's because I only had ONE can of full-fat coconut milk to work with. Still, it made for a yummy syrup, and there's a ton of it that I saved for future cravings.

Here's how my creation turned out:

"MMMmmmmmmm...All Better With Chocolate"
serves 2...but it was all mine!

2-3 cups soymilk
2 tbsp. cocoa powder
1 tbsp. bitter dark cocoa powder
splash chocolate extract
1 tbsp. granulated sugar or agave

Heat soymilk in a small saucepan. When warm, add the cocoa powders, extract, and sugar. You can either use a fork or small whisk to stir in the powders. Pour into a mug once hot.


Top with coconut whipped "cream" (read: syrup).



{yes, that's a Mr. Darcy quote, for all you Austen-philes out there}


Now go eat some chocolate!!
