White Chocolate Latte
November 18, 2008
I just found a blog post with a recipe for White Chocolate Latte. It sounds like a really tasty combination to me, so I thought I’d post it on here too (slightly adapted).
Please comment if you try it out and let us know how you get on! I will also try it out when I can get some vanilla and almond extract and post my results!
Makes 1 mug
3/4 mug full-fat milk
30g (slightly less than 3 tablespoons) white chocolate chips
2 tablespoons instant coffee granules or 1 shot espresso
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 drop almond extract
whipped cream (optional)
cinnamon sticks (optional)
In a saucepan, stir together the first 4 ingredients over a low heat until white chocolate melts. Stir in vanilla and almond extracts; pour mixture into a mug. Top with whipped cream and garnish with cinnamon sticks.
Have you ever tried an Affogato?

This is an absolutely gorgeous treat for ice-cream and coffee lovers alike.
Affogato is an Italian dessert (Affogato literally means “drowned”) made simply by pouring a shot of freshly made espresso over a scoop of icecream. It is then topped with chocolate sauce and decorated with dark chocolate flakes.
As the hot coffee begins to melt the icecream, the flavours mix to make a delightful combination.
