Anyone that knows me well, knows that I had a HOT CHOCOLATE ADDICTION before starting my healthy journey. I used to have a mug of hot chocolate to unwind at the end of the night after the kids went to bed. This wasn't just a Christmas treat...this was an every night treat from November to March. Talk about chocolate/sugar/calorie overload! Whoa! And I wondered why I couldn't lose weight (I used skim). Hindsight is 20/20.
So, this little treat last night reminded me how much I love hot chocolate, but I certainly do not want this huge addition of calories to my life for the winter months. I needed a plan! I love frozen hot chocolate, just as much as the hot version. This morning I decided to revamp my frozen hot chocolate recipe and make it healthier, something I could have whenever the cravings hit and not feel guilty about it. Mission Accomplished.
It's so easy and delicious! It definitely hit the spot! I know I will be making this many times this holiday season!
Ingredients:
1 scoop Chocolate Shakeology
