Cashew Coconut Hot Chocolate Recipe |Hot chocolate|

while I was making this hot chocolate recipe, I was kind of stuck. I wanted to think about how wonderful and comforting it is for a cold day or night, but when I looked out the window, or better yet – when I stepped out onto my porch, it didn’t make as much sense.

Because it doesn’t even feel like winter here yet!


Ingredients

Hot Chocolate

2 cups Silk Original Cashewmilk

1 (13.5 oz) can lite coconut milk

8 oz semi sweet chocolate

2–3 tablespoons brown sugar

Whipped Cream

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

1–2 tablespoons powdered sugar

1/8 teaspoon coconut extract

toasted coconut, for garnish

Instructions

1.For the hot chocolate

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the Cashewmilk and the coconut milk. Once warm, add the chocolate and sugar. Whisk continuously until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Serve warm.

2.For the whipped cream

In a medium bowl, beat the cream until soft peaks start to form. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar. Beat in the coconut extract, and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Serve the whipped cream on top of the hot chocolate, garnished with toasted coconut.
