Liquid Luscious Café

Liquid Luscious Café

This is a recipe for two. It is suggested as a treat for the well-deserved home maker. It easily doubles if she/he wants to share, but we think putting your feet up, drinking this with your favorite person is the perfect way to unwind, with the perfect combination of  coffee and chocolate!

This recipe makes 2 servings.

Liquid Luscious Café Ingredients: 
1 ounce coffee liqueur (Tia Maria or Kahlua®) 
3 1/2 ounces plain dark chocolate (the best you can afford) 
1 cup Original Blend coffee, brewed fresh and strong 
3 ounces thick cream, lightly whipped 
Garnish: chocolate shavings, optional

Directions: 
In the top of a double boiler, slowly melt the chocolate. Add the brewed coffee and the liqueur and stir gently.
Warm brandy glasses with hot water then discard the water and dry the glasses.
Pour the coffee chocolate mixture into glasses and top with the whipped cream. Decorate with grated chocolate, as desired. 
Serve immediately... yet linger with each sip.
