FAQs
Is 100% cacao powder allowed on Whole30?
Yes, 100% cacao powder with no added sweeteners or additives is compliant with the Whole30 program.
Can I use a different type of milk?
This recipe works best with full-fat canned coconut milk for creaminess, but unsweetened almond or cashew milk can be used as alternatives, keeping in mind the texture will be lighter.
