Gluten Free Dairy Free Hot Chocolate

Cook time8 min

Rich, full-fat coconut milk simmers with cocoa powder and maple syrup until glossy and smooth, then gets melted dark chocolate whisked in for extra depth. A touch of vanilla and a pinch of salt round out the flavor, giving this mug of hot chocolate a velvety, deeply chocolatey finish without ever feeling heavy. It comes together in one saucepan in just a few minutes, so it's an easy one to make on repeat all winter. Top it with a swirl of whipped topping for a cozy, café-style treat, and know that this one is a solid pick for a gluten free mug of cocoa.
