Oh My Gosh this is sooo good! I just made a cup and I'm sipping on it as I type. I used almond milk instead of coconut milk because I am a protein nutrition type and I have to eat protein with any carbohydrate I consume. Thank you so much for sharing! Now I can have hot chocolate like the rest of my family!

Yum. I'm totally stealing this idea for our next weekend tobogganing party!

Thank you so much for the information on carrageenan, Kim. If you have gut issues and are trying to avoid carrageenan, you can mix 1-2 Tablespoons of coconut milk from a can into a cup of water. 365 Organic Coconut Milk contains organic coconut, purified water and guar gum. We tend to mostly drink water, but I like to have this on hand to make special treats. It's not something anyone drinks by the cupful here, but I will post on carrageen soon! Thanks for the info.

Wondering if you know of any coconut milk w/o carrageenan? I was really excited until I looked at the So Delicious ingredient list. I have read so much about problems with it (esp. GI related problems, which we have enough of here!) that we avoid things containing it — which is hard with milk subs (apparently while it is derived from seaweed the process by which it is derived is far from wholesome). While I am not generally a huge Andrew Weil fan (he has some interesting things to say but I feel like he tows the "industry" line too much at times), even he recommends avoiding regular consumption of it).

Just melt one part So Delicious chocolate (soy-free, dairy-free) ice cream and whip with one part Rice Milk. Yummy!

I love So Delicious coconut milk! It's pretty cold here, and I can't wait to try both of these recipes! Thanks for sharing them.
