I saw a recipe come up on Chloe Wilson's the founder of I Quit Sugar, which I thought I would give a go and adapt to my won recipe
Whilst I'm not a fan of cutting out a complete thing from your diet, unless required (like me with gluten and coeliac disease), I do believe in watching your sugar intake, particularly sugar that provides no nutritional value. For example Fruit I will not avoid as it provides my body with lots of nutrients, I make sure I have two serves of fruit everyday, but milk chocolate or lollies on the other hand provide very little if not any nutritional benefit.
This was really easy to whip up, but takes a bit more effort, than adding hot chocolate powder, boiling water and milk to a cup, if that's what your after then I recommend the Natvia Sugar Free Hot Chocolate, which I also use.
The below recipe is vegan, gluten free, sugar free, dairy free and a delicious dessert treat for a cold winters night.
Ingredients:1.3 Cups no added sugar almond milk
2 tsp cocoa powder
2 tspS Natvia Stevia or sweetener of choice
1/2 tsp chai spice or tea mix
Pinch of cinnamon
Pinch of Chili powder - if you want a kick
Directions
Step 1
Heat the milk on the stove, it is best if you whisk and you heat it to avoid a top skin layer forming. Once warm and bubbling, add the sweetener and chai, stirring through, then remove from the the heat.
Step 2
Sift in the cocoa (and chili if you are adding) and your pinch of cinnamon. Then pour back through your sieve and enjoy.
