Whether the weather is bleak or you’re simply in need of a little sweet treat; a hot chocolate is a comforting choice any time of day.
A traditional hot chocolate comes loaded with sugar and topped with whipped cream, but our UP version is low in sugar and packed with protein – without skimping on taste! This recipe uses just three ingredients and takes three minutes to prepare.
We’ve steamed our milk to give a frothy, creamy texture paired with a white or milk chocolate whey protein to create a deliciously decadent hot chocolate recipe that won’t derail your diet.
Ingredients:
- 200ml full-fat milk (you can use almond milk if you are lactose intolerant)
- 25g chocolate whey protein
- 1 scoop UP Chocotrients
Method:
- Steam your milk in a saucepan or milk steamer, until it is hot, light and frothy.
- Pour a little out into a small cup.
- Add the whey protein and Chocotrients and stir well to combine.
- Pour into a mug and top with the remaining frothy milk.
- Optional: Garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
