How to Make Low Carb Friendly Hot Cocoa Mix

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol, and salt until well combined.
Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, ensuring no lumps form.
Add the vanilla extract and stir to combine.
Heat the mixture over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until it begins to simmer and slightly thicken (about 5-6 minutes). Do not boil.
Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Once cooled, store the cocoa mix in an airtight container at room temperature. To serve, add 2-3 tablespoons of the mix to a mug and add 1 cup of hot milk or water. Stir until dissolved and enjoy!
