Ingredients

  • 1/2-1 cup brewed strong coffee or espresso that has been chilled, you can use decaf too
  • 1/4 cup  milk of choice, I used almond milk
  • 1 tbsp sugar of choice, granulated or no calorie sugar substitute such as Spenda, optional
  • 1 cup ice, make sure the ice is fresh and not small little old pieces of ice, this is important for the recipe
  • 2 tbsp  chocolate syrup, plus extra for topping, regular or sugar free, Hershey is the one I used for this recipe
  • 1/4 tsp xanthan gum, optional, this is the secret that’s used in Starbucks, another option is 1 teaspoon dry instant chocolate or vanilla pudding, dry mix only
  • 2 tbsp (or more) aerosol  whipped cream, from a can, for topping

Instructions

  1. In a blender add ice and and chilled coffee. Whirl a few seconds to break up ice.Add in the rest of the ingredients except whipped cream.Whirl again until creamy and thick.
