Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots brewed espresso
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup
- as needed for topping whipped cream
- as needed for garnish cocoa powder or chocolate shavings
Instructions
Start by brewing two shots of espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, use a robust coffee concentrate as a substitute.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves and the milk is heated through, but do not let it boil.
Add the chocolate syrup to the milk mixture and whisk until fully combined.
Pour the brewed espresso into a large coffee mug or glass. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the espresso, stirring gently to combine.
Top the coffee with a generous swirl of whipped cream.
Garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder or a sprinkle of chocolate shavings for an extra touch of decadence.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Ultimate Coffee Delight!
