Coffee Cocoa

Coffee Cocoa

Coffee Cocoa is something I came up with through trial and error. Now that I’ve perfected it for my taste, I can’t get enough of it! I probably drink at least one every day - and sometimes more!

Ingredients (serves 1):

  • 1 cup coffee
  • 1 tbsp. soy creamer (I use Silk French Vanilla)
  • 1/2 tbsp. hot chocolate powder
  • 1 tbsp. fat-free whipped cream

Directions:

After brewing the coffee, stir in 1 tbsp. soy creamer and 1/2 tbsp. hot chocolate powder. Add a dollop of whipped cream and, if you’re like me, an extra sprinkle of hot chocolate powder on top for that extra bit of decadence that can’t be beat ;) You can play around with the creamer and hot chocolate to get a stronger or weaker “cocoa” taste. Enjoy!

Hey… Silk makes a nondairy creamer with no HFCS or hydrogenated oil… I know they have a french vanilla version but not everyone carries more than the original flavor.

Sounds so yummy though coffee and cocoa, mmmm

I make my own little creation like that but instead of hot choc powder, I just use real cocoa powder. And in place of the vanilla creamer, I use vanilla stevia drops. In fact, as I type this, I just polished one off. Sans whip cream but I love the choc, coffee, and ‘nilla flavors too!
