Description

This Hot Chocolate Nog is a THM Fuel Pull that makes a great filling snack or lunch if you’re trying to really double down on weight loss…or if you’re saving up your calories for a Christmas party later in the day. XD

Skip the half and half for a dairy free version. The xanthan gum (you could also use glucomannan) is a thickener that really helps keep you full. I thought this amount made for a nice thickness and mouthfeel, but if you want it really thick you can go for 1/2 a teaspoon instead!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons half and half for extra creaminess (optional)

 


Instructions

Heat the water, almond milk, and optional half and half in a large Pyrex glass measuring cup or a widemouth quart mason jar in the microwave. (I do 3 minutes.)

Add the rest of the ingredients to the hot liquid and blend carefully with an immersion blender. The operative word is CAREFULLY, on a low speed, to avoid splashing hot liquid. Blend until the hot chocolate thickens a bit. Taste and add more sweetener if desired. Enjoy!
