Homemade coffee creamers are so easy to make! This all-natural, healthy Chocolate Coffee Creamer is made with coconut milk, sweetened with honey and flavored with cocoa powder and vanilla extract. This small batch coffee creamer is a delicious way to sweeten your coffee.
I’m a big coffee drinker. I drink a couple of cups of black coffee in the morning and towards the middle of the day, I love to slow down and enjoy a cup of coffee that’s lightly sweetened with this healthy chocolate coffee creamer.
Coffee creamers that I find in the grocery come in such large bottles. It takes so long for me to finish them off. In fact, by the time I get half-way through the bottle, I’m always afraid that the coffee creamer may have gone sour or I’m tired of the flavor by then.

This small batch chocolate coffee creamer is the perfect size if you’re cooking in a household with one or two people. You aren’t left with a huge amount that can easily go to waste. This non dairy creamer recipe will make a little over a cup of creamer, just the right amount to last anywhere from a few days to about a week, depending on how much creamer you use in your coffee.
Ingredients In Non Dairy Chocolate Coffee Creamer
The ingredient list for making homemade chocolate coffee creamer is short. I use:
- unsweetened coconut milk
- honey
- unsweetened cocoa powder
- vanilla
You can use regular milk or almond milk if you prefer but I really love the taste that the coconut milk adds to the creamer. It reminds me a little of a caffè mocha.
