Homemade White Chocolate Mocha

Billy, Amanda and Cally like White Chocolate Mocha's from Starbucks.  I guess I am living under a rock because I have never had a Starbucks Coffee.

Iced Mocha Frappe

Billy and Cally are both home this weekend.  We all went out to the Filling Station in Troy to eat dinner for Billy's birthday.  When we got home Cally and I made these Paula Deen Iced Mocha Frappes.  I have tried Cally's frappe before from McDonald's and really did not care for it but these are good.  I made the frozen cubes last night so they would be ready when Cally got home today.  All I had was hazelnut coffee so maybe that is giving it a different taste.  The hazelnut coffee with the hot chocolate is sooooo gooooood  !!

Iced Mocha Frappe
Paula Deen

4 C brewed coffee, hot
4 (1 oz) packages hot chocolate mix (3/4 C mix)
4 T sugar
1 C heavy whipping cream
2 t vanilla
whipped cream for serving

In a heat proof bowl or pitcher, add the coffee, hot chocolate mix and sugar.  Stir until well combined.  Pour the mixture into ice cube trays and freeze, covered, for at least 3 hours and up to 1 week.

Put frozen cubes in a blender.  Add the cream and vanilla and puree until smooth.  Divide the frappe into tall glasses and top with whipping cream.

Nutmeg and Hazelnut Coffee

I could not find my Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer last weeks so I purchased my usual Hazelnut Coffee Creamer.  While I was making my coffee on Monday I happened to see my nutmeg nuts sitting on the counter and the idea popped into my head to grate some fresh nutmeg into my coffee.... Oh boy was it good.  So if you like Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer like me and can not find it, just put some nutmeg into your coffee along with your usually creamer  :o)
