Thick Coconut Hot Chocolate (Lactose-Free) is a deliciously, smooth, creamy and ultra thick comforting drink, perfect on a chilly day
I do not have a big variety of favorite drinks. Coca-Cola is my first and last drink of the day, no matter the weather or season, but during the evening I like to have a thick Coconut Hot Chocolate.
Almost certainly think I am with Coca-Cola as other people are with Coffee, Tea or even Energy drinks, in the sense of must-haves or should I say “necessity” ?
But, now and then, I do actually put my Cola aside for some other delicious treat. Vanilla Tea is one of my monthly drinks and of course this Hot Chocolate recipe which I am sharing with you today !
This drink is so thick and creamy !
I might have written a poem about it, if I had any idea at all on writing poems, which, fortunately, I have zero knowledge of.
Fortunately, because I really do not want to lose any of you because of reading a horror paragraph or ten.
I like to keep a little of the mixture aside to drizzle over after the Marshmallows have been added. The recipe is also Lactose-Free.
Thick Coconut Hot Chocolate (Lactose-Free)
- 1 can (400g) Coconut Milk "Lite"
- 3 TB Cocoa Powder (heaped spoonfuls)
- 2 TB Water
- 1 t Vanilla Essence
- Sugar to taste
- Mini Marshmallows to top
-
Heat the Coconut Milk in a medium saucepan
-
Mix the Cocoa Powder with the Water to form a paste – add to the Coconut Milk together with the Vanilla and Sugar
-
Heat through – pour into tall serving glasses and top with Marshmallows
Perfect on a cool night or a cold day – Enjoy !
