I’m sharing a recipe that I’ve adapted and enjoyed with my kids for many years. Bonus that it happens to be low-carb! It’s great for letting my kids get a warm chocolate fix without any added sugar.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1¼ teaspoons granulated stevia
- 2 tablespoons plus ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ¼ cup heavy cream
How To Make It
- In a microwave-safe mug, mix together cocoa, stevia, and 2 tablespoons almond milk until the mixture forms a thick paste. (Don’t skip this step or the ingredients won’t blend well.)
- Add the additional ½ cup almond milk and ¼ cup heavy cream and stir well. (For a richer cup of cocoa, you can swap the almond milk and heavy cream to ¼ cup and ½ cup, respectively; nutrition info will differ.)
- Microwave until heated to a child-safe temperature (about 1½ minutes; microwaves will vary).
