Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cup almond milk
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 0.5 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
  • 2.5 tbsp powdered erythritol
  • 11 g collagen powder
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.0625 tsp salt

  1. Finely chop the baking chocolate.
  2. In a small saucepan, whisk the cocoa powder with about 3 tablespoons of the almond milk to make a smooth paste.
  3. Whisk in the remaining almond milk and the heavy cream. Warm over medium-low heat until steaming, about 4 minutes, without letting it boil.
  4. Add the chopped chocolate, powdered erythritol, and salt. Whisk constantly until the chocolate melts completely, 1 to 2 minutes.
  5. Remove from the heat and whisk in the collagen and vanilla until dissolved. Taste and adjust the sweetness.
  6. Pour into 2 mugs and serve hot, with whipped cream if you like.
