Annacia, today I made me a cup of this delicious coffee, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I didn't have the brand of coffee you used, but I did have a bag of Folgers Gourmet Selections "Chocolate Truffle" Ground Coffee in the fridge, so that's what I used. I added 1-1/2 tablespoons of the ground coffee, and actually 10-ounces of water to my coffee maker. When done brewing, I added 2 tablespoons of Hershey's Chocolate Syrup to my coffee (in my coffee cup), along with 1/2 teaspoon of granulated sugar, the extracts, 1 tablespoon of half-and-half cream, and topped the coffee with some Reddi Wip. Love this coffee, and it tastes so much better than adding those store bought, sugary sweet, liquid coffee creamers. Thank you Annacia for sharing this recipe. It's definitely a keeper!

I usually use flavored syrups for my "special" coffees, but had both extracts on hand so gave this a try. I didn't have the flavored coffee, so just added a bit of cocoa powder and more almond extract. I also used fat-free half and half. Great coffee and a real "treat".

I used coconut cream instead and it also works. Love the taste of almond in it. Thanks! Made for WZT4.

Nice way to flavour coffee! Added some almond extract (didn't find any coconut extract...). Great with a nice muffin!! thanks Annacia! :)
