Really enjoyed this hot chocolate. I used almond milk instead of macadamia and it still turned out super creamy. The monk fruit sweetener blends in nicely too.
This recipe turned out amazing. I especially loved how the chocolate chips melted perfectly into the mixture and gave it a smooth velvety texture. The vanilla at the end added a delicious warmth that made it feel extra cozy.
