I made this delicious Mocha Hot Cocoa recipe using SPLENDA® Sweetener Products as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars #SplendaSweeties #SweetSwaps

Warm up a cold winter’s day with this no sugar added Mocha Hot Cocoa. The combination of chocolate and coffee is one of my favorites. The coffee added to this Mocha Hot Chocolate enhances the chocolate flavor and provides a little caffeine boost to get through those busy holiday days.

I’m not really a cold weather kind of girl. Luckily we have fairly mild winters in South Carolina. Even still, I’m always looking for ways to warm up and there’s no better way than a warm and toasty beverage by the fire.

I use SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated every morning to sweeten my coffee and it also works wonderfully as a sweetener for hot cocoa. I love that SPLENDA® Sweetener Products offer the sweetness of sugar without all of those calories. Plus SPLENDA® Sweeteners are incredibly versatile. I use them in beverages, appetizers, salads, and for baking.
