How to Make Delicious and Healthy Low Carb Hot Cocoa

Most of the time when you order hot cocoa or hot chocolate in a restaurant, it is served with several teaspoons of hmfb_hotcocoasugar, making it an unhealthy high carb dessert rather than what it can be: a healthy treat! You can easily replace desserts and sugar cravings with low carb hot cocoa, not gain weight, and you’ll be getting heart-healthy antioxidants from it!

Here’s what you need:
UNSWEETENED baking cocoa. I’m a big fan of Ghiradelli’s.
Stevia powder or stevia extract. This is a natural sweetener with no carbs and no calories.

2 teaspoons of cocoa, add stevia (the amount you need will depend on the concentration) to sweeten, add hot water, and you’ve got a healthy drink and chocolate in a cup!

    Don’t forget the oxidized cholesterol in the milk powder in packaged cocoa. I would take your recipe and sub a tbsp or three of heavy cream for some of the water :)
