National Coffee Day: Peanut Butter Mocha

Happy National Coffee Day friends!!  Sorry this is so late in the day, but I HAD to post something on national coffee day!  I celebrated by recreating an awesome coffee drink that they have at my favorite coffee house.

I’m not going to lie.  This drink is really really rich.  This is more like a dessert treat than a morning coffee.  That doesn’t mean it isn’t still insanely delicious though!  Chocolate and peanut butter are a match made in heaven!

Peanut Butter Mocha
(Print this recipe!)

Ingredients:
1/2 cup nondairy milk (if you want it frothy use soymilk- it froths like nobody’s business!)
2 Tablespoons dark chocolate chips
1 Tablespoon creamy peanut butter
1 shot espresso or 1/2 cup really strong coffee
sweetener to taste (I used a drizzle of agave nectar)

Directions:
In a big mug add chocolate chips and peanut butter and melt in the microwave- about 45 seconds.

Make your espresso or brew your coffee.  I have a cute little espresso maker that’s super easy to use.

Carefully stir your hot espresso or coffee into your melted peanut butter/chocolate mixture.  Mix well.

In a microwaveable cup heat your nondairy milk for about a minute.

Blend your hot nondairy milk in your blender until nice and frothy.

Slowly add frothy milk to your espresso/chocolate/peanut butter mixture.
