Rich, creamy, thick chocolatey goodness. You will fall in love with this decadent Italian vegan hot chocolate.
Ingredients
- 2 cups / 500ml + 2 tablespoons soy milk
- ½ teaspoon cornflour*
- 2 tablespoons cacao powder
- 3 tablespoons coconut sugar (or any other granulated sugar)
- Pinch of salt

- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Whipped coconut cream (optional)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, add the 2 cups / 500ml of soy milk and bring to a boil.
- While you wait for the milk to come to a boil, mix the remainder of the milk with cornflour in a small cup and set it aside.
- In another bowl, combine the cacao powder, coconut sugar, and salt. Set aside.
- Once the milk has been brought to a boil, reduce heat and whisk in the milk and cornflour mixture, followed by the cacao powder mix. Whisk for a minute.

Notes
Cornflour: Where I live, cornflour is the name for the white fine powder that is used as a thickener. It may be called corn starch as well.
