- Meanwhile, In a saucepan whisk together light butter, unsweetened almond or skim milk, and sugar substitute. Stir until butter melts. Add cocoa powder and continue to stir occasionally as it cooks over medium-high heat.
- Bring to a boil, and boil for 1 minute. ( this is important-it allows the mixture to set to the right consistency.)
