Black Forest Coffee

I decided that one chocolate and cherry recipe just isn't enough--so here is another favorite!


Black Forest Coffee



Black Forest Coffee
8 oz. brewed coffee
2 Tbsp. half & half (or favorite creamer)
1 Tbsp. chocolate syrup
1 Tbsp. maraschino cherry juice
whipped cream

Brew your favorite coffee.  Add cream, chocolate syrup and cherry juice to coffee and stir.  Top with whipped cream.

~This is as good as any fancy drink at a coffee shop and cost pennies to make at home!

Sea Salt Caramel Coffee

It's National Coffee Day!!

To celebrate, here is my version of a Salted Caramel Mocha Coffee.

You will need:
-half & half (or your favorite creamer or milk)*
-chocolate sauce
-caramel sauce
-whipped cream
-sea salt
-brewed coffee

 Place 2-4 Tbsp. of half & half (depending on how creamy you like it) into a cup.  Add 1 tbsp. each of caramel sauce and chocolate sauce.

Heat in microwave for about 15 seconds, till warm.  Use a whisk to blend together and make it a bit frothy.



 Add coffee.  Top with whipped cream.  Drizzle whipped cream with a bit of chocolate sauce and caramel sauce (if desired).
Sprinkle the top of the coffee with a little bit of coarse ground sea salt. I rubbed the sea salt together in my hand over the cup.  Just a pinch goes a long way, but adds a delightful sweet/salty flavor to the coffee!

 

*You can also make this with milk, up to a 1/4 C. just heat and froth the same way as above.  

Enjoy!
