easy mocha ,creamy version

Truly wonderful! A must try if you enjoy mochas. The cocoa gives it just enough pure chocolate flavor. I forgot to heat the milk so ended up zapping in the microwave for a few seconds before topping with whipped cream. Faster, easier and cheaper than driving to Starbucks and waiting in line! Thanks, Jill!

Weve gone all over town looking for a mocha as good as Starbucks. Now we can just look at home! I used soy milk and non-dairy whipped topping to keep it dairy-free, and added a bit more coffee to taste. It was delicious! I didn't use a blender. Instead I heated the milk, added the dry ingredients and whipped cream and whisked it all together. Then I added the coffee. Thanks for the chance to stay home and have a great cuppa -- this will be a regular treat at our house.

to kim steves: i usually do it hot, but it can be done either way.thanks for your comment!!! -hersheykiss8908

Call me stupid, but I could not figure out if this was to be served hot or cold. Anyway, I originally served it hot (made it in the blender then heated it back up to the temp of hot coffee) and it was excellent. My son especially had a fit over it - he's a coffee house groupie. Later, I mixed it all in the blender, then threw in a couple of ice cubes and served it cold. Excellent again. I would, however, like to know how I was supposed to do this. The 1:1 mixture of coffee and milk sort of makes it lukewarm, so I just wasn't sure. Excellent recipe though, and one I'll use again and again.
