Brew a fresh cup of hot coffee and measure out 6 ounces. Keep it hot.
In a small bowl, mix the unsweetened cocoa powder and granulated sugar together.
Add the cocoa-sugar mixture to the hot coffee and stir until fully dissolved.
Pour in the Irish whiskey and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the heavy cream and vanilla extract until it thickens slightly but is still pourable.
Pour the coffee mixture into a heat-proof glass or mug.
Gently pour the lightly whipped cream over the back of a spoon so it floats on top of the coffee.
Top with 2 tablespoons of whipped cream and sprinkle with the finely grated dark chocolate for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Chocolatey Irish Coffee!
