Coffee Makes Chocolate Taste Better
The coffee-chocolate pairing has long been a favorite in recipes. The combination of the warm and slightly bitter taste of coffee pairs perfectly with the sweet smooth richness of chocolate. You'll find the addition of coffee in chocolate recipes, like Chocolate Pound Cake, Chocolate Coffee Mousse, Mocha Cheesecake Cookie Cups, and this s'mores coffee with marshmallow, enhance the chocolate flavor and make them taste even more incredible.
Copycat Starbucks S'mores Latte
Do you love to treat yourself occasionally to one of those fancy coffee drinks found at your local coffee house? Well, now you can make your own at home. And the flavors in this S’mores Coffee drink remind me of my favorite Starbucks S'mores Latte.
To make a latte version, just double the milk, warm it in the microwave then froth it. Add it on top of the chocolate-flavored coffee for a rich, sweet, and over-the-top delicious copycat. It’s perfect for that morning coffee break, an afternoon indulgence, or even an after-dinner dessert.
Ingredients
Coffee - your favorite coffee will work fine but do brew it a little stronger than your usual. I like to brew a 6-oz K-cup of dark roast for a strong coffee flavor.
Marshmallow Fluff - this sweetens the coffee and takes the place of hot chocolate's mini marshmallows. Of course, you can substitute some minis in place of the creme too.
Cocoa Powder - use dark cocoa powder if possible for the richest flavor. I like Hershey's special dark variety. You can also substitute chocolate syrup or hot fudge for the powder.
Vanilla Milk - either use non-dairy vanilla-flavored milk, vanilla coffee creamer, or regular milk or half and half flavored with a touch of vanilla extract. Warm and froth it if a latte is your preference.
How to Make S'mores Coffee with Marshmallow Fluff
- Brew 6-8 ounce cup of coffee and pour into a large mug.
- Add marshmallow fluff and stir until dissolved.
- Sprinkle in cocoa powder and mix well.
- Add vanilla milk and stir.
Garnish with whipped cream, a drizzle (or more) of chocolate syrup, and a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs for a quick and easy homemade specialty coffee! What a great way to justify eating s'mores for breakfast!
To take this S'mores coffee over the top, serve it with a skewer of s’mores. You know I had to go there! For an easier option, dip your mug's rim into chocolate syrup then into a plate of graham cracker crumbs. Whatever way you have it - enjoy!
Iced S'mores Coffee Option
For an Iced S'mores Coffee, just mix fresh brewed coffee or even cold brew coffee with other ingredients and let it cool slightly. Add ice and then top with your favorite toppings. You can even dip the rim of the mug in chocolate syrup then into graham cracker crumbs for even more s'mores flavor.
Do I have to use marshmallow fluff?
Not at all! You can substitute marshmallow creme or even mini marshmallows for the fluff.
What kind of milk should I use?
I use dairy-free milk, usually cashew milk, almond milk, or a dairy-free creamer. You can also use regular milk, half and half, and even coffee creamer. Add more or less to suit your preference.
Can I make this coffee drink dairy-free?
This specialty coffee is super easy to make dairy-free. Just switch out the milk for dairy-free and make sure to use marshmallow creme instead of marshmallow fluff.
