Chocolate and sugar free "Hot Chocolate"

I am currently on some heavy diet restrictions due to medications that I am on. Last night I had a craving for hot chocolate and I managed to create a yummy substitute!

1 1/2 cups milk of your choice (I used homemade coconut milk)
1 tbsp. carob powder
1 scant tbsp. xylitol
1/2 tsp vanilla extract or 1/4 tsp ground vanilla beans
Put all ingredients in a small pot and heat on stove with medium heat. Serve warm. It's not quite the same as chocolate but still really yummy!
