Protein Hot Chocolate
Richy, creamy and zero added sugar makes this the perfect healthy dessert recipe.
Ingredients
Hot Chocolate
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 scoop Autumn's Chocolate Protein Powder
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
Optional Toppings
- 2-3 tablespoons homemade whipped cream with zero added sugar
- unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- Pour the milk into a small pot over medium heat. Stir occasionally for 2-3 minutes or until the milk has reached your desired temperature. Remember: don't let it boil! This can curdle the protein powder. Remove from heat once warmed.
- Pour in the protein powder and cocoa powder and whisk until combined.
- Optional to top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of additional cocoa powder.
Notes
If you are carb sensitive, I recommend opting for almond milk or coconut milk. However, if choosing one of these options instead of whole milk, keep in mind that the total protein content will be 10 grams instead of 18 grams.
