Notes
Tips for Making Oat Milk Hot Chocolate
- Use good quality vegan chocolate chips. This will create a rich, thick, and creamy texture.
- Use plain oat milk. This way, you'll have control over the flavor.
- You can froth some oat milk to add extra creaminess instead of the whipped topping!
- Add some vegan chocolate sauce if you're a true chocolate lover!
- Add more coconut sugar if you want a sweeter drink.
- Don't let the oat milk boil, or you risk it curdling.
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge and should be enjoyed the same day if possible.
