- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips or finely chopped chocolate (70% cacao or higher)
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla powder (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift the unsweetened cocoa powder to remove any lumps.
Add the powdered sugar and milk powder to the bowl. Whisk thoroughly to combine the dry ingredients evenly.
Stir in the dark chocolate chips (or finely chopped chocolate) and mix until distributed evenly throughout the mixture.
Add the sea salt and vanilla powder (if using), and whisk again to incorporate all ingredients.
Transfer the hot chocolate mix into an airtight container or mason jar to store. The mix can be kept in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
To prepare a cup of hot chocolate, heat 1 cup of milk (or non-dairy alternative) in a saucepan or microwave until hot but not boiling.
Stir in 2-3 tablespoons of the hot chocolate mix, adjusting to taste. Mix well until the chocolate is fully melted and the drink is smooth and creamy.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade, all-natural hot chocolate!
