Tired of bulletproof coffee? Why not try this thick, smooth and silky hot chocolate? Perfect for a cold day or night. It’s another easy way to meet your fat quota for the day. This bulletproof hot chocolate is fully loaded and could be a meal in itself.
Ingredients
- 100 ml coconut milk
- 1 tbs. coconut oil
- 15 g. butter
- 1/2 scoop protein powder (chocolate or vanilla flavor)
- 1 tbs. cocoa powder
- Chilli powder (optional)
Instructions
- Heat coconut milk in a saucepan till hot but not boiling. If you prefer the easy way out, you can microwave it on HIGH for about 1 minute or less. You don't want it to boil over.
- Pour the heated coconut milk into the blender or smoothie maker, followed by coconut oil, butter and protein powder.
- Blend for 15-20 secs. Pour into a mug and you will have a thick froth on top of the drink like caffe latte.
- Sprinkle a tiny bit of chill on top if you like.
Notes
I normally don't put protein powder in bulletproof coffee nor any sweetener because I don't take any sugar in my coffee. But for hot chocolate, it tastes better with a little bit of sweet in it. I first used a few drop of liquid stevia but I found that if I added protein powder, the sweetener in it is sweet enough to give the hot chocolate the necessary sweetness, plus it packs extra protein.
