Notes
For a Lite Dark Chocolate drink, use low-fat, unsweetened milk of choice (unsweetened Silk almond milk only has 35 calories per 8 fluid ounce serving) mixed with 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder and 1 Tablespoon Truvia (skip the chocolate chips). When made up this way, this hot cocoa has less than 70 calories, depending on the type of cocoa powder you use.
