Peppermint Hot Carob
 
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup of coconut milk (or ½ cup of coconut cream and ½ cup of water)
  • 1 tablespoon carob powder
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (for less sweet option, use 2 teaspoons. You can also substitute stevia extract)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ - ½ teaspoon peppermint extract (I love peppermint, so I really add a lot, but a reader emailed to say it was much too strong for her - so start with a scant ¼ teaspoon, and add more only if desired).
Instructions
  1. Combine coconut milk carob powder and sweetener in a blender, and blend until smooth.
  2. Pour into a pan, and heat over medium-high heat, until just barely simmering. Remove from heat and add the two extracts.
  3. Enjoy!
