December 12, 2014 by Arena Blake 6 Comments

I made this Low-Calorie Cinnamon Hot Cocoa Mix with Sweet’N Low as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars. #SweetNLowStars

Hot Cocoa is one of my favorite drinks during the winter, but I often feel guilty about drinking those extra calories. This Low-Calorie Cinnamon Hot Cocoa Mix is the perfect solution, using Sweet’N Low to make it less than 100 calories a cup! That’s what I’m talking about!

Adding a bit of cinnamon flavor takes traditional hot cocoa up a notch. It gives it a needed spice on a cold winter night. Package this Low-Calorie Cinnamon Hot Cocoa Mix in 8-oz mason jars (with mini marshmallows added to fill empty space) and attach these cute printable tags for a perfect holiday gift.

Low-Calorie Cinnamon Hot Cocoa Mix

 

Ingredients:
2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1 cup instant non-fat dry milk
5 packets Sweet’N Low
1 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions:

Whisk together all ingredients in a large bowl. Pour low-calorie cinnamon hot cocoa mix into mason jars.

This recipe makes enough to fill one 8-oz mason jar. I filled two jars halfway and filled in the empty spaces with mini marshmallows.

    This is a great method; making it yourself is so much healthier than buying pre-made mixes. I have a question: if I want to use a sugar substitute, which one works best and tastes the most similar to sugar? Erythritol or monk fruit? Thanks for your advice! https://myblockbreaker.com/
