Instructions
Method
- Make the Hot Chocolate Mix: Chop the dark chocolate into small chunks. Add to a blender, add the sugar, cocoa, starch, cayenne, cinnamon and salt and blend until the chocolate breaks down into coarse powder. Add in the vanilla and blend again until well combined. Store in an airtight container or gift.
- To make Hot Chocolate: Add 2 to 3 Tbsp of the hot chocolate mix to a cup of non dairy milk. Heat the milk in a pan or microwave until just hot enough but not boiling. Mix vigorously for half a minute. Serve with whipped coconut cream or vegan marshmallows. i added some mini chocolate chips as well. they slowly melt into the hot chocolate :).
