Mix the oats, milk, cocoa powder and sweetener together in a microwave safe bowl. Continue to stir (it takes a minute or two to get the cocoa stirred in, but it WILL get there-trust me!).
Place the bowl in microwave. Microwave on HIGH power for 2 minutes and 15 seconds. Stir oats every 45 seconds (total of 3 times), until the oatmeal has significantly thickened.
Remove oatmeal. Let stand for a minute or so before serving. If desired, top with a few sliced raw almonds, and additional splash of milk (if oatmeal is too thick). Stir, serve and enjoy!
