Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots Espresso
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate syrup
- 1 tablespoon Caramel sauce
- 0.25 cup Whipped cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Cocoa powder
- 1 piece Optional: Milky Way bar (mini or regular size, chopped)
Instructions
Prepare 2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine, stovetop espresso maker, or a strong brewed alternative. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over low to medium heat until hot but not boiling. Froth the milk using a handheld milk frother, automatic frother, or by vigorously whisking it until it becomes creamy and foamy on top.
In your serving mug, drizzle 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup and 1 tablespoon of caramel sauce into the bottom of the mug.
Pour the prepared espresso shots into the mug over the syrups, stirring gently to combine.
Slowly pour the steamed milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon. Once the milk is in, spoon the foam on top of the drink to create a traditional cappuccino texture.
Top the cappuccino with whipped cream, a light dusting of cocoa powder, and if desired, chopped pieces of a Milky Way bar for extra indulgence.
Serve immediately and enjoy your rich and sweet Milky Way Cappuccino!
