What makes this keto hot chocolate recipe so special is its unique energy-providing ingredients. We decided to tweak our delicious hot chocolate recipe by giving it an added kick with some (optional) MCTs for extra energy, making it like a bulletproof hot chocolate.

We changed the ingredients slightly and added MCT powder for those wanting a little kick early or midway through the day, but you can leave the MCTs out if you want a nightcap before bed.
We’ve used unsweetened Macadamia Milk for this keto hot chocolate recipe. It has a mild flavor, and it’s so creamy! You can swap it out for your preferred low-carb milk (almond, etc.).
