Mexican Coffee

My boys bought me this chocolate/coffee book a few years ago. Now and then, I pull it out and try new recipes.

I enjoy experimenting with different drinks so this is fun for me. The one I tried this morning is called Mexican Coffee. I made the boys the Mexican Chocolate – it involves heavy cream, chocolate syrup, strong coffee, a variety of spices and cinnamon. When I made this for the boys they wanted whipped topping so I made it homemade because I don’t like the store bought stuff. For my coffee drink, I put foamed milk due to the richness of the heavy cream and chocolate.
This is yummy. Chocolate enhances the flavor of coffee and coffee brings out fun flavors in chocolate – they really compliment each other – that is why they are used together in a variety of baking recipes.
