Ingredients

2 cups unsweetened plain almond or cashew milk
¼ cup plain pumpkin puree
¼ cup (1 scoop) THM Chocolate Whey Protein Powder (optional but adds creaminess; Vanilla Bean or Cookies-n-Cream flavors work also)
¼ cup Lakanto Classic or equivalent sweetener (more or less to taste)
⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons heavy cream (optional; makes the recipe an S; adds creaminess and flavor)
½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch mineral salt
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon maple flavoring (optional)

In a small to medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, pumpkin, protein powder, sweeteners, cocoa powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to prevent boiling over.

Serve with homemade marshmallows or top with whipped cream.
