    This gluten free, nut free and vegan Hot Chocolate is so rich and delicious, you’d never know it’s allergy friendly.

    A Safe Option

    When my daughter was allergic to dairy, pre-packaged hot chocolate mix was not a safe option. Using cocoa powder was the way to go and the one I use is gluten free, dairy free, nut free and safe. 

    She became hooked on this recipe and even though she can actually have dairy now, she still prefers it vegan. 

    This hot chocolate takes minutes to make and is that perfect drink for those chilly days. Heck, it’s perfect for any day!

    For more chocolate recipes, try my Chocolate Ice Cream, Double Chocolate Banana Bread and Triple Chocolate Cake.

    Let’s Make Some Hot Chocolate!

    In a medium bowl you are going to whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar and salt. Set this aside.

    Measure out 2 cups of water and microwave or boil until hot. If using a microwave, I usually heat it for about 2-3 minutes. 

    Once that’s done heating, pour the hot water into the cocoa powder mixture and whisk to combine. Add in that vanilla and whisk again.

    Don’t Forget The Toppings!

    Pour the hot chocolate into two mugs and top with vegan marshmallows and allergy friendly chocolate syrup, if you desire (I always do because...the more chocolate the better).

    And that is IT!!!! Vegan Hot Chocolate for two is only minutes away! Enjoy!

    Lee, the beautiful founder of Lane and Grey Fare.

    Hi guys, I'm Lee! As a mother of two children with celiac disease and multiple food allergies, I wanted to share all that I’ve learned with others in a way that’s entertaining and helpful. All my food is 100 percent gluten free, nut free, seed free, egg free and most of my baked goods can easily be made dairy free (vegan).
