Hot Cocoa

I spent over an hour and a half yesterday shoveling the driveway, which was quite the workout, and I was chilled to the bone when I was done. So, I said out loud: "Hot cocoa sounds really good right now!" I remembered I had a small bit of cocoa powder left over from when I made chocolate cupcakes several days ago, so I used it up in this simple, delicious hot cocoa:
Ingredients: (for one serving)
* 1 1/4 cup soymilk (I like Eden brand)
* 1 tablespoon natural cocoa powder (do not use Dutch or alkali processed)
* 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Heat the soymilk in a saucepan or in the microwave just until it simmers. Combine the maple syrup and cocoa powder in the bottom of a mug and stir until the cocoa melts. Pour in the hot milk and stir until well combined. Enjoy!
