Sugar Free Dark Hot Chocolate Mix

Byfrenk

This homemade dark hot chocolate mix is equivalent to an entire box of the dark hot cocoa packets. The secret to its “deep, dark” color and flavor is Dutch-processed cocoa, such as Hershey’s brand Special Dark Cocoa. But any unsweetened cocoa powder will do.
