Thirsty Thursday.... Hot Cocoa

Where we live, the nights are already cold! We have to cut the furnace on, and leave it on!

Imagine curling up in the evening, before the fireplace, with a good book, and a steaming mug of hot cocoa!

Gone are those days, right? Unless you pick up the instant sugar-free kind. And somehow, the flavor just isn't there, is it?

Well, here's a recipe that will come much closer to bringing you back to those days of rich, indulgent hot cocoa!

Decadent Hot Cocoa

Serves 1

Ingredients:
1 cup - Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Vanilla Milk
3 tablespoons - Hershey's Natural Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
3 packets Splenda brand sugar substitute
1/4 cup Kraft Miniature Marshmallows

Place first three ingredients in a small saucepan over medium-low heat on the stove. [Don't turn it up, or the milk will burn and overflow!]

Stirring constantly until all ingredients are dissolved. When heated thoroughly, pour into a mug.
Add marshmallows to the top.

You can sprinkle top with cinnamon if you want for added flavor! This is yummy!

While a bit higher in calories than that instant sugar-free cocoa you can purchase, I can guarantee, the flavor is well worth it!!! Or put a sugar free candy cane in for a Christmasy effect!
