Ingredients

1

1 piece Date , pitted

1 tablespoon Raw cacao or cocoa powder

quarter teaspoon Instant coffee

1 cup Water

Tips

For an even creamier texture, you can replace water with unsweetened almond milk.

If you prefer a sweeter taste, consider adding an extra date or a splash of vanilla extract.

A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can add a delightful twist to your hot cocoa.

Directions

Pit the Date: Start by removing the pit from the medjool date and chop it finely to ensure it blends smoothly.

Heat the Ingredients: In a small saucepan, combine the chopped dates, raw cacao powder, instant coffee, and water.

Simmer: Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the dates and powders without clumping.

Blend for Smoothness: Once everything is heated through and the dates are softened, transfer the mixture to a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth.

Serve Warm: Pour the blended hot chocolate back into the saucepan to reheat if needed, or serve immediately in a mug.
