Ketolicious Hot Chocolate! Make YOUR OWN easy sugar-free mix!

[@victoriasketokitchen]

Oh my word I just made this! I’ve been needing a clean keto hot chocolate and this COULD NOT BE BETTER! It’s Fabulous!!! ❤❤❤

[@gaylewilliams7353]

Victoria, did you use your keto milk? I love it!

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Thanks!

[@ladyflimflam]

I bought Scharffenberger and Guittard cocoa powder and baking bars when they were in the stores this christmas to experiment with making a drinking chocolate. Will need to make up four batches-one all Scharffenberger, one all Guittard, one all Ghirardelli, and one with Hershey’s cocoa matched with Baker’s chocolate-and run some taste tests. What I’ve learned so far from just using 1T cocoa powder and 1T allulose in my cup to make hot cocoa is that a plant milk just isn’t necessary. I mix the powders in my mug, hydrate them and mix into a paste with 1T heavy cream, then add boiling water from the kettle and use my milk frother to make it all creamy. The Hershey’s powder needs some help with a couple nuggets of cocoa butter thrown in, but it has just half the fat that the premium cocoa powders do so that isn’t surprising. Sometimes anise extract is a nice add-in.

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

They are all very good quality ingredients, I think you could easily just make the mix and be happy with it.

[@Djynni]

I'm guessing you don't need milk because you add heavy cream.

[@stephanieilluzzi7355]

WOW! Never thought to add anise to hot cocoa! Can’t wait to try it! 😋

[@greeneyes6311]

​@AllDayIDreamAboutFood I have organic cacao powder, would this work with the same measurements?

[@vickiejohnson3283]

I always have heavy cream on hand for coffee so thank you for this tip!.

I appreciate the realism--difficulties and how you worked through them. 😊

[@sandtx4913]

Why am I watching this and why was this recommended to me? I just started a 3-day waterfast and today is day 1. 😫 This looks so delicious. 🤤 After I break my fast, it's hot chocolate time.

[@lmcintire-brooks475]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was shopping at Amazon for some sugar free/keto hot cocoa and I actually saw one for like $48! Thank you again. That's looks so good.

[@classychassie6584]

I’m so happy to find your channel😊 I am a type 2 diabetic & I love hot chocolate so this recipe is one I will definitely make. I have made several of your recipes & they are absolutely delicious. The next one I’m going to try is your keto crackers because I love to snack on cheese & crackers too. Thank you so much Carolyn,for all of the time & effort you’ve taken to create these wonderful recipes oh & by the way my name is Carolyn too. 😀 Have a lovely day 😀

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Thank you!

[@Sbannmarie]

Yum yum yum. Btw your hair style is adorable. Going to make this!

[@CarlaCorc]

I made this - without the collagen. I used Half & Half for the milk. OMG! It was so good! It was sweeter than I would prefer, but that is easy to fix. I used powdered vanilla, which might have contributed to the extra sweetness. I’ve been in the mood for hot chocolate lately, so this was timely.

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Yes, you can easily adjust the sweetener. At this point, you could even add a little more cocoa powder to cut the sweetness!

[@bonnietyler4764]

I was so excited to try your recipe. I just bought the usweetened chocolate today. I have tried so many horrible cocoa recipes; but this one is wonderful. THANK YOU! THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! You are a wonder!!!

I boil water and after using whipping cream about 1/3 c, add the water, I love it and no dirty pots!

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Great tip!

[@Solitude11-11]

I use a pure unsweetened chocolate block from Willies Cacao (I’m in the uk, not sure if it’s available in the us) and when I put it in chilli I use a fine grater…I’d do that with this mix, then just stir well with a balloon whisk. Save all the processor dust 😄 I like the flavour variations with this too!

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Sounds great!

[@dianeb95]

Can’t wait to try this! And I just got a little milk frother that works wonders in my coffee, & should be fabulous for hot cocoa too!

[@sharongeyer2304]

Sooo good!!! Not too sweet and very, very smooth. Great chocolate flavor!

[@henchid6615]

Hi Carolyn, this mix was much tastier than the low carb hot chocolate powder mix I bought, I had a fine sugar free chocolate of 90% cocoa that worked amazingly in this hot chocolate powder mix. This recipe is also good for me because I have lactose intolerance ! I made it once with lactose-free milk and once with almond milk, both hot drinks were so delicious. You made me happy, thank you . By the way, your videos are also ..fantastic, so I'm subscribe To this channel .. ❤️😋!

[@carolg5340]

This turned out very well, I used Jay Rob Egg white powder in place of the collagen & only 1/4c of monkfruit powdered sweetener, no salt of course. Thank you, very good recipe & with added cream may not even need the protein powder. I am in UK

[@sueanderson2514]

I’m from the UK 🇬🇧. We find it hard to source all your Keto ingredients, but this one I managed. This has to be the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had. Thank you from me and my sweet tooth.

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Glad you found comparable ingredients!

[@marianmurphy5385]

I make something very similar, but add the spoonfuls of cocoa etc to a mug as the milk is heating..add a tiny bit of cold milk to the mug to make a paste then the hot milk..or half milk half water..but if your organised..this way is probably better.

[@nuday4637]

For a little extra kick use brewed coffee YUM

Sounds yummy! Couldn't tell you the last time I had a hot chocolate. It's been years and years.

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Enjoy!

[@TheEMC99]

You read my mind. Hot cocoa was my daily treat at bedtime. But the options available are awful. I attempted to do the copycat swiss miss recipe. It was better than everything I tried and helped me realize I was overshooting the amount of cocoa required. Making it keto left it lacking big time in creaminess. I can't wait to try your version and maybe get my nightly treat back. 😊

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Enjoy!

[@commonsense246]

This is delish. I use my electric milk frother to mix it comes out really foamy but use an extra tall container or it will whip it out of a cup. YUM thank you!

I make a simple cacoa drink in morning . 1 tablespoon of organic baking cacoa with 1 tablespoon of Monkfruit sweetener and 2 tablespoons of coconut cream . Blend with coffee frother . Simple and easy and all products from Costco . I would use Allulose but not easily available in Canada . The online price for the small amount of Allulose is way too much .

The great part about this is that you can even adjust it after the fact. Too sweet? Add a bit more of the other ingredients. Not sweet enough? Stir more sweetener into the mix.

Thank you for this recipe! I love, love, love it. I have made two batches; the first one has unflavored collagen protein and I use it with HWC & water (coffee), and the second batch I substituted my favorite chocolate protein powder (Equip) for the collagen. Both batches are great with a little HWC and water/coffee. Also, I found if I finely grated my chocolate bar, I could mix the batch with a hand whisk - less messy for me.

Yours is 100% the best keto hot chocolate mix I've tried. I like it with keto marshmallows in it.

[@PinkLady54]

YUM! Absolutely correct! I agree having ready made cocoa mix is a must have!! I am dairy free & love the convenience of having it ready to go so I put coconut milk pwd in & it tastes great. I still use coconut milk to make & strong coffee most often 😍 I also use pwd vanilla bean & finely ground Maldon smoky salt for an extra exquisite flavor. I am able to get a homogeneous mix by just sifting them together when using the pwd vanilla but I don't use the chocolate bar either. 🤔 ?? Maybe the coconut milk pwd brings enough fat?? Plus the choc collagen I use has MCT oil pwd & acacia fiber so it still tastes fatty enough. Thank You for sharing Your brilliant kitchen science magic!! YOU ROCK #1!

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

Glad it works for you. I did not like the taste of powdered coconut milk.

Same thing! It's all hydrolyzed collagen (makes it easier to digest). You will see it called collagen, collagen protein powder, or collagen peptides.

[@gayehiggins4612]

Yummmm! Love your recipes and used many or variations according to Australian equivalent ingredients. While I am nearly always happy with my efforts I live alone. Making 2, 4 or more servings at a time I tend to freeze leftovers for another time. I nearly always find that freezing most things is a disappointment when I use them again. The worst is pasta and pasta dishes like lasagne, nearly always throw them out as they are tough and dry. Would appreciate info on recipes I can make and freeze that are still edible the second time round. Have been living a keto lifestyle for over 2 years, lost 25 kilos and reversed diabetes. Just want to know what I can cook and freeze, particularly main meals and snacks. Have plenty of treat/sweet foods that freeze well but struggle with my meals.

Can I use unflavored gelatin Knox original) instead of the collagen?

[@craniumgrunt6001]

I ran out of almond milk one day and added water and almond flour in my blender. Ta da! Almond milk! I don’t know how much I used, I kept adding both until I had the taste I wanted. Do you think there’s a way we could do something like that with this recipe?

[@AllDayIDreamAboutFood]

You can certainly add it as the milk but I think adding the almond flour to the recipe itself would result in a terrible texture.

[@missyasche881]

@@SP-ql9xz depends on your taste, how creamy you like it. But I usually use 1/8 to 1/4 C. of cream and use 10-11 oz of water.. 1/8 C is equal 2 tablespoons or 1 oz, and is actually enough. This recipe actually calls for 10-12 oz of your favorite milk. In the print out recipe, she writes that she uses 10 oz hemp milk and 1 oz heavy cream. All of that being said, just add cream and water together to your preferred taste.

I see you used most of the Chocolate secrets: Multiple types of chocolate (both dutched and normal processed from different sources), vanilla, salt but you missed instant coffee and palm oil (gives it a silky smoothness). The primary issue with your mixing technique is that the chocolate needs to be cooked or it will taste grainy, so add it to your pan of milk and whisk it frequently over heat.
