Hot Chocolate with Marshmallow Fluff

February 3, 2020 By lovecheflaura Leave a Comment

Two mugs of hot chocolate with a blue linen

Hot Chocolate with Marshmallow Fluff is rich and warming. The base of the hot chocolate contain your choice of nut milk and cacao powder. It's naturally sweetened with maple syrup which you can easily adjust to make it as sweet and rich as you would like. The marshmallow fluff, which contains two ingredients comes together in minutes in the mixer. It's the perfect winter time dessert!

If nostalgia had a taste, it would be hot chocolate. Growing up, I drank Swiss Miss- I know all you '90's kids can relate! My favorite was the instant mix with the dehydrated marshmallows. I loved it so much, I would even eat the powdered mix alone. No milk needed. I would make myself a mug of hot chocolate and then stuff as many marshmallows in my cup before my hot chocolate slipped all over my lap, or before my mom would yell at me. Which ever came first.

While I would love to enjoy some Swiss Miss today, it's just not something I can be drinking. It contains corn syrup and modified whey, two food products that I steer clear of. I've been making my own for years and am so excited to finally be sharing my recipe with you!

And who knew marshmallows were so easy to make? This marshmallow fluff contains two ingredients. Yes, you read that correctly-two ingredients! It takes a little work to make but it is so worth it. I promise. At first, the fluff is creamy and smooth and with time, it will stiffen up to soft marshmallows. I love these because you can pick however you want to enjoy them.

Dairy-free Vanilla Ice Cream is made with coconut Dairy-free Vanilla Ice Cream is made with coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla for a simple and delicious dessert. This ice cream can be used as the base of a milkshake, a banana split, or enjoyed by itself.⁠

I went dairy-free almost 7 years ago. Nut milk suc I went dairy-free almost 7 years ago. Nut milk such as almond and coconut quickly became my go-to for coffee creamer, smoothie bases, etc... What I didn't really think about when it came to nut milk was what was in them.⁠
⁠
It's nearly impossible nowadays to find a nut or seed-based dairy-free milk without added preservatives, sugar, and stabilizers. Stabilizers such as guar gum, gum arabic, and carrageenan wreck havoc on your gut. If you don't have time to make your own, I highly recommend @malk The only ingredient in their products is the nut they are making milk out of. And those nuts are organic! Added bonus! So if you don't want to use my 2- 2-minute nut milk hack, try and buy your nut milk as cleans s possible.⁠
⁠
Grab the recipe for this 2-Minute Almond Milk through the link in my profile! And yes, this hack works for all kinds of nuts and seeds 🙃⁠
⁠
⁠One skillet Za'atar Chicken with Grain-free Orz ⁠One skillet Za'atar Chicken with Grain-free Orzo and Herbed Tahini is the most amazing weeknight dinner! This dish is full of za'atar spice, lemon, and garlic and drizzled with zesty herbed tahini dressing. It is gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, and ready in under an hour 😍! ⁠
⁠
If you're in the Traverse City area, @oryanatc has the grain-free orzo you will need for this recipe along with the penne and spaghetti! 🙌🏼⁠

I have really been loving my smoothies lately. Smoothies are a great way to get a bunch of greens into your diet. Just add a few handfuls of spinach or another green and blend away 🌿!⁠
⁠⁠
This Mint Smoothie is a McDonald's Shamrock Shake copycat, but a whole lot healthier. It is so minty and refreshing! Top it off with some raw cacao nibs for a mint chip kind of vibe 🤩! ⁠

✨ COOKIES & CREAM MILKSHAKE ✨⁠ ⁠ I know I' ✨ COOKIES & CREAM MILKSHAKE ✨⁠
⁠
I know I'm posting this well before lunch, but I wanted to give you lots of time to go to the grocery store for tonight's dessert 😂⁠
⁠
I am all about indulging in dessert once in a while. I mean, I used to be a pastry chef. I love my sweet treats! But if you do, make it a little bit more tasty and a lot more healthy. ⁠
⁠
Cookies and Cream Milkshake has decadent cookies blended with either homemade vegan vanilla ice cream (or your favorite store-bought ice cream for an even easier recipe!). This milkshake is similar to an Oreo milkshake, but it's vegan, dairy-free, and doesn't contain all the questionable ingredients that are in an Oreo cookie 😍⁠

⁠
Freshly baked bagels are one of my favorite things Freshly baked bagels are one of my favorite things in the world 🤩! Bagels are not easy to make. They require making the dough, rising the dough, shaping the dough, boiling the dough, topping the dough with your favorite toppings, and then finally baking the dough. This is a common reason bagels are not made at home.⁠
⁠
Thankfully, this recipe has only 6 ingredients and doesn't require rising or boiling! I mean, we all need some easy AND delicious recipes in our lives! And before you ask, yes, these bagels are also nut-free!⁠
⁠
When we start to dive into paleo baking, one of the most common baking flours is almond flour. Unfortunately, a lot of people avoid nuts for allergies or other reasons. This recipe uses two paleo-compliant flours, tapioca starch, and coconut flour which are both nut-free 🙌🏼! Thank the breakfast Gods! ⁠

All this sunny and warm weather in Northern Michig All this sunny and warm weather in Northern Michigan has got me excited for summer ☀️!! I may have to bust out the grill and make some Grilled Mango Lime Chicken because you know, 40 degrees and sunny feels like 80 degrees and sunny in February 🤣 ⁠Anyone else ready for summer?⁠

Traditional almond milk and other nut milk are mad Traditional almond milk and other nut milk are made by blending roasted or soaked nuts in water and then straining the liquid. This 2-Minute Almond Milk uses ground almond butter (my favorite is from @sunandswellfoods) blended with water for quick and easy homemade nut milk that has no added oils, preservatives, or stabilizers. Yay for a happy tummy 🤗!⁠
⁠
This recipe is incredibly easy! Blend all the ingredients on medium for about two minutes. The almond milk will go from a tan color to beige and almost white when it's ready. Once blended, pour into a large glass container such as a pitcher with a lid and store it in the fridge for up to three days 🙌🏼!⁠
⁠
If you're not an almond fan, don't worry! The options for making fresh homemade nut milk from nut butter are endless. Try the recipe with cashew butter, hazelnut butter, or even sunflower butter for a nut-free option ✨⁠

I’m just going to say it and get it out of the w I’m just going to say it and get it out of the way: LUMPY BONE BROTH IS NORMAL! I just needed to say it before we continue 😂⁠
⁠
As I said, thick and lumpy broth is normal! It means you made a gut-healing and highly nutritious liquid that you can now use in all sorts of dishes. Lumpy and thick means lots of collagen and protein!⁠ ⁠
⁠
Making your own chicken bone broth at home is not only incredibly easy, but it’s also less expensive and healthier. Why would I want to buy store-bought chicken broth, chicken stock, or chicken bone broth? Depending on the brand, there can be added cane sugar and natural chicken flavor. What? Isn’t what I am buying already chicken-flavored? Why do I need more flavor? Also, high-quality bone broth is expensive! Like 12 bucks for 2-3 cups expensive! Making your own bone broth at home is easy, delicious, and inexpensive. ⁠
