Chocolate and More Coffee

Marye at Baking Delights is again offering you a chance -- five chances -- to win the Hershey's Chocolate Gift Basket this week. Go on over to her blog and leave your comments.

One of the chances to win is by going to Hershey's Kitchens and choosing your favorite recipe. The first thing that caught my eye was the Cocoa Café Olé since I just blogged about Coffee, Coffee, Coffee. Chocolate and coffee is such a beautiful combination.

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa
  • 3 tablespoons powdered instant coffee
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 cups milk

Combine sugar, cocoa, instant coffee and cinnamon in large saucepan. Gradually stir in milk; heat stirring occasionally, to serving temperature. Pour into mug or cup. Serve immediately. Makes 4 servings.

The only thing I'd add to the directions is to tell you to simmer your drink. If you boil it, the coffee will taste bitter. This is a quick and easy way to make a Mexican Mocha and is also a way to achieve instant Zen.
