This vegan peanut butter hot chocolate is so creamy you won't believe it's gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan! It's made with only a few simple ingredients that I bet you already have them in your house. There is nothing better on a cold, winter day than whipping up this delicious peanut butter hot chocolate. It comes together in less than 10 minutes, too! I love topping it with more melted peanut butter, chocolate and some marshmallows for an extra little treat. With this recipe, you will never want to make hot chocolate from the packet again! #glutenfree #dairyfree #vegan

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond milk (I used unsweetened)
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup vegan dark chocolate chips (I used Guittard extra dark chocolate chips)
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (add more if you like it sweeter)
  • 1 tbsp melted vegan chocolate chips (optional for topping)
  • 1 tbsp melted peanut butter (optional for topping)
  • 2 tbsp vegan marshmallows (optional for topping (I like Dandies vegan marshmallows))

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan, add almond milk. Heat over medium heat until milk is warm. You don't want the milk to come to a boil, though.
  • Add the peanut butter and vegan chocolate chips. Whisk until melted and combined.
  • Taste and add pure maple syrup to suit your taste. If you're using a semi-sweet chocolate you may not need it, if you're using a very dark chocolate you may need the full two tablespoons.
  • Top with melted peanut butter, chocolate and marshmallows if desired.
