There isn’t anything better than sipping on hot cocoa on a cold winter night. If you’re looking for a healthy hot cocoa recipe made with natural ingredients, I have one for you! This homemade hot chocolate mix is the best I’ve ever tried! You can mix it with warm milk (or your favorite dairy free milk) or add it to your coffee to make your very own Mocha. Yum!
When it comes to sweets and treats I do my best to use the most wholesome ingredients. For this hot chocolate mix recipe, I used organic cocoa powder, coconut sugar, vanilla bean powder and soy free chocolate chips (frozen).
Let’s gets started!
You’ll need a blender or food processor to combine the chocolate, coconut sugar and vanilla bean powder together.
Then you’ll add the frozen chocolate chips. Blend well and add a few drops of peppermint essential oil if using.
Store your homemade hot chocolate mix in an airtight container in a cool place. 
To use, combine 1-2 tablespoons of homemade hot chocolate mix with 6 ounces of hot water or milk (or coffee). Enjoy!

Oh my goodness, so happy to find your site. I’ve really been working on eating healthier. I now have my backyard chickens and have cut sugar intake (mostly) and carbs are at a minimal, but trying to bake without flour? Bought coconut flour without even knowing what to do with it, but now I’m so excited to try your recipes, first two will be tortillas and banana bread! I have Leukemia, plus fibro, DDD, high blood pressure, etc. I’ve weaned off most meds. for pain and just trying to de-tox after many years. You wouldn’t really know I’m sick to look at me, but obviously the inside is! So bless you for sharing!!!!

By the way, this sounds good, as well as quick, so I’m hoping I have time to make it as gifts for a couple friends.
Thanks…………

Hi Tiffany,
Do I need to keep the jar in the frigde ? I’m wondering because you used frozen chocolate chips.
Thanks so much for all the wonderful tips and recipes. God bless you,

I was looking for a serving size and I see that it says “combine equal parts of mix with water or milk”. That can’t be right, right? Seems like way too much mix for how much liquid you’re using. hmmm??
