Strawberry Hot Chocolate with Chocolate Pretzel Dippers
Need If you have agave, semi-sweet chocolate chips, cocoa powder, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 1 hour.
Instructions
For the pretzel dippers: Line a small baking sheet with wax or parchment paper.
Place the chocolate in a small bowl, and place the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth. Spoon the melted chocolate over the pretzels leaving a 2-inch handle at the top.
Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate has set, about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
For the hot chocolate: In a blender, combine the almond milk, cocoa powder, agave and strawberries. Blend until smooth.
Transfer to a medium saucepan and add the chocolate chips.
Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is smooth and the chocolate has melted, about 8 minutes.
Pour the hot chocolate into 4 mugs and serve the dippers alongside.
