ZUKR Sugar-Free Hot Chocolate with Whipped Cream: The Perfect Guilt-Free Indulgence

ZUKR - Hot Chocolate

 

There's nothing more warming and comforting than an age-old craving for a delightful mug of hot chocolate. However, with our increasingly health-conscious world, many of us are looking for ways to enjoy this beloved beverage without the guilt of extra calories and sugar. Enter ZUKR, your sugar-free saviour!

Why ZUKR?

ZUKR can be effortlessly blended into a powder in a smoothie maker, making it an ideal substitute for regular sugar. Not only does it provide the sweetness we all crave, but it also comes with significant calorie savings. For every tablespoon of regular sugar you replace with ZUKR, you save approximately 48 calories!

Let’s dive into the recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of cow's milk (you can adjust based on your preference)
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder, unsweetened
  • 2 tbsp ZUKR sugar-replacement (or adjust to taste)
  • A pinch of salt
  • Whipped cream for topping (optional for extra indulgence)

Instructions:

  1. In a saucepan, combine milk, cocoa powder, ZUKR, and salt.
  2. Whisk continuously over medium heat until the cocoa and ZUKR are dissolved and the mixture is heated through.
  3. Pour into mugs and top with whipped cream if desired.
  4. Enjoy your guilt-free treat!

Nutritional Breakdown:

Using cow’s milk and ZUKR:

  • Calories: Approx. 150 calories per cup (without whipped cream). This includes the calories from milk and cocoa. Since ZUKR is calorie-free, you get all the sweetness without the added calories.
  • GI Count: Since ZUKR likely has a GI count of 0 or very low, the overall GI count for this drink mainly comes from the milk and cocoa, making it much lower than if regular sugar was used.

The ZUKR Advantage:

By switching to ZUKR, you're saving about 48 calories for every tablespoon you would have used of regular sugar. So, if you've got a sweet tooth and like your hot chocolate on the sweeter side, those calorie savings can really add up!

Warm, creamy, and sinfully good without the actual "sin", our ZUKR Sugar-Free Hot Chocolate is the perfect companion. Enjoy your mugful of warmth without the worry!
