Vegan White Hot Chocolate
Rich, creamy, and deeply comforting, this white hot chocolate is the kind of cozy drink that makes you want to curl up under a blanket and forget the world exists. A blend of oat milk and full-fat coconut milk creates a luxuriously silky base, while finely chopped vegan white chocolate melts in to give every sip that signature sweet, velvety depth. A touch of maple syrup and vanilla round out the flavor beautifully, and a pinch of salt keeps it from tipping into cloying territory. The whole thing comes together in under ten minutes on the stovetop — no fancy equipment, no complicated steps. White chocolate drinks can be tricky to pull off without dairy, but using real vegan white chocolate (rather than a flavored powder) makes all the difference here. Finish each mug with a cloud of non-dairy whipped topping and you've got something that genuinely rivals anything from a coffee shop. This recipe makes two servings, so it's perfect for sharing on a cold evening.
