This was a lovely recipe for a hot chocolate that's not disgustingly sweet like most are.
I didn't have the agave nectar or stevia and instead sweetened with dates since everything was going to go into the blender anyways. I also thought that it could have been more chocolately so I upped the amount of cocoa.
mmm mmm.
