Spicy and Sweet Hot Cocoa


Who doesn't love steamy, hot cocoa in the fall?  You can make it healthy and still get that yummy chocolate! Try this version :)
2 1/2 cups light coconut milk
6 tablespoons pure cacao
2 – 3 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
pinch sea salt
Pour the milk into a medium-sized sauce pan and set over medium-low heat. Whisk in the chocolate, maple syrup, and spices. Continue whisking occasionally until milk is hot and steamy. Pour into mugs and enjoy!
