Paleo Vegan Hot Chocolate (GAPS, AIP-friendly)

(400-milliliter) can coconut milk (I used full-fat – if you don't want to use coconut milk, you can use whatever type of milk you'd like but note that the hot chocolate will be less thick)

pitted dates (that's about 16 - 18 dates regular-sized dates – if you use Mejdool, you'll need a lot fewer)

Dutch-process cocoa powder1 or carob powder

vanilla extract or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla powder / bean scrapings

salt (I like things salty and use 1/4 teaspoon)

paleo chocolate marshmallows for serving (not vegan)
