Ingredients

250 ml (1 cup) unsweetened cashew milk (or sub any other plant-based milk)
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
2 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) maple syrup to taste (or sub any other sweetener)
1 teaspoon cornflour (cornstarch) (optional)

Instructions

Mix together all the ingredients in a saucepan - ensure the cornflour has completely dissolved
Cook on a medium heat, stirring regularly, for around 5 minutes or until thickened

Notes

Tip: It is crucial to ensure that the cornflour (cornstarch) has dissolved completely before heating, otherwise it will clump up once you start to cook the mixture. Regular stirring is also necessary to ensure you don't get clumps.
