Extra Rich Dairy Free Hot Chocolate

In a saucepan, heat up one cup of milk of choice (the author uses oat milk) until it starts to boil. Transfer the heated milk to a blender. Add 1 large soft pitted date, 2 tablespoons cacao powder, 1 tablespoon maca powder, a pinch of sea salt, a splash of vanilla, and a handful of chocolate chips to the blender. Blend until all ingredients are well-combined. Pour the hot chocolate into a mug. If you have a milk frother, feel free to froth more milk and pour it on top. Optional additions include marshmallows, coco whip, and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
