Default dying for hot chocolate!

Before I started this WOE, I had a cup of hot chocolate every evening as my snack. I miss it soooooo much. Has anyone found a low-carb hot chocolate or a recipe for one that tastes good? Diet Swiss Miss has been discontinued, according to the people who make Swiss Miss.

Thanks! I will have to try some of those. I have tried one that I found on the internet but it was horrible!

Diet Swiss mMiss was discontinued? I didn't know that. I still find it easily in stores. Could it be just the distributor in your area no longer carries it?

If they are stopping, I'm stocking up for the winter darn it. I love it with toasted Marshmallow DaVincci, or mint syrup.

You could always try making your own with unsweetened cocoa, hot water, cream, and splenda.

I'd like a recipe to make my own mix that I can keep in a container at my desk, to just mix with water. Cocoa and Splenda ain't cutting it~— I think I need some kind of powdered creamer or powdered milk. Does anyone know of any powdered creamer that's really low in carbs?

I think with the right proportion of cocoa powder/Splenda/creamer I could duplicate regular hot chocolate mix. At least I'm hoping!

KETO makes a mix that is only 2 carbs a serving. It should be here in the shopping (that is where I bought it).

It isn't bad ... I like a squirt of whipped cream on it.

Default soy slender

I have heated the chocolate Soy Slender in a pinch & it works- if you arent opposed to soy milk. It is very low in carbs- I think 1 net carb for 8 oz

Soy milk as long as it is "unsweetened" is very low carb. Sometimes the regular ones are higher then regular milk.

Yeah, I found a posting on-line where someone stated that they had found the company that makes Swiss Miss...he had a customer service number for this company. I can't remember what the companies name is...anyway, I called and asked where I could get Diet Swiss Miss in my area. The lady said that the product has been discontinued...she said that there might still be some of this product in some stores but once it is gone it is gone.

Anyway, thanks for all the ideas for hot chocolate. As I said before that is the one thing that I really miss about this WOE.
