The evenings are long and dark, and we are all in need of an indulgent treat once we sink into the sofa for the night.

This
healthy, yet super-delicious hot chocolate requires only four ingredients and take no more than five minutes to prepare.
Yes, really.
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
-
Combine all the ingredients into a saucepan over high heat, using a whisk to break up any clumps. Keep stirring until smooth and piping hot, then pour into a mug and serve warm.
-
Top with dairy-free whipped cream and shaved chocolate, if desired.
