Equipment

  • 1 Shaker Bottle Or Blender

Ingredients

  • 1 Scoop Chocolate Protein Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Brown Sugar Substitute Or real brown sugar, if you're not cutting carbs
  • 1-2 teaspoon Cocoa Powder
  • Pinch cayenne or cinnamon optional
  • Dehydrated marshmallows optional for mixes
  • 12 oz Unsweetened Almond Milk Hot, or water

Instructions

For Protein Hot Chocolate:

  • Combine dry ingredients in a shaker bottle or blender.
  • Add hot water or milk; shake until well combined, and smooth.
  • Pour into a large mug, enjoy right away!

For Protein Hot Chocolate Mix Pouches:

  • Measure dry ingredients directly into individual snack-sized plastic baggies, seal and shake well to combine.
  • Press as much air as possible out of each baggie, seal the zipper.
  • Transfer baggies to an airtight container, labelled with the date, recipe name, and a note to use 12 oz of water or milk, if you like.

Notes

Using milk - whether dairy milk or a plant based milk - will result in a creamier drink than water.
Nutritional Info includes almond milk, values will be lower for water.
Actual nutritional content will depend on the protein powder you use. The recipe software is assuming 7 grams of carbs and 18 grams of protein.
Also, 3 grams of carbs come from sugar alcohols in the brown sugar sweetener.
