Very tasty! Great combination of flavors. I used Splenda and no-sugar added Cool Whip, so sugars were quite low. Thanks for a nice mid-day pick-me-up.

This is a great sweet spiced mocha. I enjoyed this treat very much. I loved the addition of the cinnamon and whipped cream to the decadent chocolate enhanced coffee. The vanilla helped to bring out and mellow the bittersweet chocolate I used. This was absolutely wonderful, I can't wait to make this again. Thanks for sharing sharon.

This really hit the spot tonight since it's been a little chilly today. It has everything I love in a warm drink. Made for ZWT4 for the Tastebud Tickling Travellers.
