What is better on a cold winter day than a cup of hot cocoa? How about a healthy cup of hot cocoa! This rich hot chocolate version uses dates instead of sugar. This is gluten free and Paleo approved as well as Candida friendly. It is so good for you! The kids will never know!
Who says that hot chocolate has to be off limits when you are watching what you are eating? Not me! I like to find recipes to adapt to how I am eating so that I am able to enjoy hot cocoa with the family on a cold winter day. This recipe is so good that no one will realize it is not made with traditional sugar.
