Nut Butter Hot Chocolate

Nothing like a cozy cup of hot chocolate this time of year. I like to make mine functional with nerve-calming ashwaghanda and nut butter that packs healthy fats. It’s the perfect sweet treat and you know all the ingredients are good for you.

Ingredients: (preferably organic)

  • 1 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tsp almond or cashew butter
  • 1 tbsp cacao powder
  • ¼ tsp ashwaghanda
  • ½ tbsp tsp maple syrup
  • a pinch of salt

Directions:

01. Heat up the milk in a small saucepan.

02. Mix together the milk, nut butter, cacao powder, ashwaghanda, maple syrup and salt in a high speed blender and blend until creamy.

03. Pour into your favorite cup and enjoy with some freshly grated dark chocolate or coconut whipped cream on top.
