Creamy, dreamy, and totally dairy-free! This vegan hot chocolate is rich, decadent, and guaranteed to warm you up this winter. The best part: it whips up in about five minutes!
Place the milk, chocolate chips, maple syrup, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt into a small saucepan and set it over medium heat.
Heat the mixture, whisking constantly, until it's hot and the chips are completely melted.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the vanilla.
Divide into mugs and top with vegan marshmallows or whipped topping.
Serve.
