My kids and I have always loved hot cocoa, but we try to avoid processed sugar. I knew I could prepare hot cocoa for them which was delicious enough to satisfy them, but still nutritious enough for me to feel happy about it. This hot cocoa is rich, creamy, chocolatey, lusciously soothing, and ridiculously simple to make.
Ingredients:
3 cups milk
3-6 medjool dates
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Directions:
1) Blend all the ingredients in a high speed blender on the soup setting until smooth and hot. Taste and add dates or cocoa powder as needed.
2) Ladle into mugs and enjoy!

* If you don't have a high speed blender, transfer the mixture to a pot and heat to desired temperature. Keep stirring to ensure none is stuck to the bottom. Return to the blender to get a smooth consistency.
