Mocha Cappuccino Lite Recipes

Steps:

• Make around 35ml espresso using a coffee machine and pour into the base of your cup. Add the drinking chocolate and mix well until smooth.
• Steam the milk with the steamer attachment so that it has around 4-6cm of foam on top. Hold the jug so that the spout is about 3-4cm above the cup and pour the milk in steadily. As the volume within the cup increases, bring the jug as close to the surface of the drink as possible whilst aiming into the centre. Once the milk jug is almost touching the surface of the coffee, tilt to speed up the rate of pour. As you accelerate, the milk will hit the back of the cup and start naturally folding in on itself to create a pattern on the top.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine unsweetened cocoa powder, instant espresso powder (or coffee), and salt. Starting very gradually (adding 1 tablespoon at a time), vigorously whisk in 2 cups water until very smooth; whisk in 1 1/2 cups low-fat milk.
• Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in sugar until dissolved. If desired, strain through a fine-mesh sieve before serving.

Steps:

• Make coffee, follow directions for your favorite brand of espresso roast coffee.
• Mix coffee, still hot, and sugar in your mixer until sugar is dissolved.
• Add milk and chocolate syrup and continue mixing, about one minute.
• Pour mix into a sealable container for easy storage.
• Store in fridge until ready to use (Note: Do not store any longer than you would milk).
• To make drink, combine equal parts mix and ice in a blender and blend on high until smooth.
• Pour into glasses.
• Top each glass with whipped cream and drizzle with chocolate syrup.
• Serve.

Steps:
