Keto hot cocoa

I'm obsessed with this hot cocoa recipe I found on reddit, I tweaked it a bit.

1 t coconut oil
1 t erythritol (or sugar/sugar substitute)
1-2 t unsweetened cocoa powder
1 c almond milk (almond/coconut milk, or coconut milk, or regular milk)
optional dash of ground clove and cinnamon
optional 1 T heavy cream

In a small saucepan over medium-low heat add coconut oil, let it melt, add erythritol (or sugar/sugar substitute) whisk it into the oil, whisk in unsweetened cocoa (I use Trader Joe's), then add a dash of clove and cinnamon spice and whisk quickly until blended so the cocoa doesn't burn. Slowly add the almond/coconut milk while stirring with whisk until heated. (I sometimes add a T of heavy cream for a creamy flavour.)

Mmm fresh hot cocoa!!
