Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 cup brewed coffee
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 cup of milk. Use a whisk or a hand mixer on low speed to blend the two together until they are well combined.
- Add 1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk to the bowl. This will add sweetness and creaminess to your creamer. Whisk until fully incorporated.
- Next, sift in 1/4 cup of cocoa powder to avoid any lumps. Stir gently with a whisk until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth and uniform in color.
- Pour in 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract. This will give your creamer that refreshing minty flavor. Stir well to ensure the extract is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Finally, add 1/4 cup of brewed coffee to the mixture. This will enhance the coffee flavor of your creamer. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Once your peppermint mocha coffee creamer is fully mixed, taste it and adjust the sweetness or peppermint flavor if desired by adding more sweetened condensed milk or peppermint extract.
- Transfer the creamer to a clean, airtight container or a glass jar with a lid. Store it in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- To serve, simply add a splash of your peppermint mocha coffee creamer to your favorite brewed coffee or hot chocolate. Stir well and enjoy!
