Indulge in this creamy café mocha delight that perfectly balances rich coffee and velvety chocolate. Ideal for a cozy morning or an afternoon pick-me-up, this easy-to-make drink will become your new favorite treat!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup freshly brewed coffee, hot

  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder

  • 2 tbsp sugar

  • 1 cup milk, any kind (dairy or non-dairy)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • whipped cream for topping

  • chocolate shavings for garnish

Directions

  1. Brew your coffee using your preferred method until you have 1 cup of hot coffee ready.

  2. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir well to blend the dry ingredients.

  3. In a small saucepan over medium heat, add 1 cup of milk. Heat the milk until it is warm but not boiling, about 3-4 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.

  4. Once the milk is warm, add the cocoa-sugar mixture and whisk until fully dissolved, about 1-2 minutes. You want the mixture to be smooth and creamy.

  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

  6. In a large mug, pour the hot coffee first, then gently add the chocolate milk mixture on top. Stir lightly to combine.

  7. Top your café mocha with a generous dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate shavings for a delightful finish.
