I drink bulletproof coffee which you can read about here. It is yummy and decadent and fills me up. But a friend on the paleo facebook page I like posted about Bulletproof Hot Chocolate. Be still my heart. What a great alternative to the sugary bedtime treat. And something for my kids that would actually help them.
This is her original recipe
12ox hot almond milk
1 oz butter
1 oz coconut oil
1 oz raw cocoa paste
sweetener to taste
I didn't have cocoa paste and we drink raw milk...so, here are my changes.
12 oz hot raw milk
1 oz cocoa butter
1 oz coconut oil
1 egg yolk
1/2 T cocoa powder
1/2 oz unsweetened chocolate
sweetener to taste
dash of vanilla
Heat milk and egg yolk whisking regularly till steaming. Remove from heat and add cocoa butter, coconut oil and unsweetened chocolate. Once melted or near melted (about 10 min) add cocoa powder, sweetener, and vanilla and blend. Yummy, filling, creamy hot chocolate.
I think next time I will also add an ounce of butter.
