Dairy Free Keto Hot Chocolate

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, whisk cocoa in ⅓ cup boiling water. Set aside.

2. 2

   In a saucepan, mix together coconut milk, macadamia nut milk, ⅓ cup confectioners Swerve and salt. Simmer until combined, about 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Whisk in hot cocoa and chocolate until smooth.

4. 4

   Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla.

5. 5

   For the optional uncooked meringue, use pasteurized dried egg white powder labeled suitable for uncooked meringue. Reconstitute the equivalent of two egg whites according to its package. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat until foamy, then gradually sprinkle in the ¼ cup confectioners Swerve for the topping. Do not use unpasteurized raw egg whites.

6. 6

   Continue beating until soft peaks form; whipping time varies by product. Divide the hot chocolate among four mugs and add the meringue just before serving. If you do not have a suitable pasteurized whipping product, skip the meringue or use a dairy-free whipped topping. The hot drink does not reliably cook an uncooked topping.
