Okay, I'm all about spending time in the great outdoors, but 9 degrees is a little too cold, if not for me, for my little man and my dog. So during CJ's nap time today, I am making myself a nice cup of vegan hot chocolate! The recipe is from Alicia Silverstone's cookbook The Kind Diet and this is certainly not the first time I've made it...
1 cup soy/rice milk blend
1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon (eh-hem, or more!) of nondairy chocolate or carob chips
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon maple syrup
Optional toppings: vegan marshmallows, nondairy whipped topping, chocolate shavings...
Whisk all the ingredients (except toppings) in a small saucepan over medium heat until the chips melt. Add toppings if desired.
And now I will curl up with a nice book and enjoy my hot chocolate! Thanks Alicia!
