This makes a wonderful cappuccino!!! I made it using light ice cream and for only one serving. Will definitely be making this again. Thanks for sharing your recipe DuChick. Made for Potluck Tag. -
wow this is delicious. Even better than Tim Horton's Iced Coffee. Next time I won't add the sugar. Cause it's a little bit too sweet for us. Thanks DuChick. Made for 123 hit wonders. -
Chocolate & Coffee - 2 of my favorite things (I'm singing that song now!) I love the not overly sweet flavor of this drink where I can taste the cocoa but also the coffee and I'm not overpowered with sweetness. I used 100 calorie serving Turkey Hill Vanilla Bean Ice Cream so I saved on a few calories too along with about 4 bucks from my local java shop. Made for 1.2.3 Hit Wonders Tag May 2008! Thanks Chickie! :) -
MMMM heavenly! This is indeed a treat. I love this especially with whipped cream on top. But even without it, I could taste the richness that the vanilla ice cream brings. Thank you, DuChick!

I am...
~a mother of 2 kids (19 and 22) who are extremely picky eaters. The mere mention of "healthy" sends them running in the opposite direction. They prefer the creamy, cheesy, fried stuff that they weren't brought up on!
~a wife of a wonderful man who fights an expanding waistline and will lovingly eat most anything I set before him. Everything is 5 stars to him. :) He's the easiest customer a cook could ask for!
~a teacher who tends to reach for comfort foods to relieve stress. I am a middle school reading specialist. The miracles I see on a daily basis keeps me going! But it's also stressful, so keep me away from the cookie jar! I really have to fight off the sugary, fat-laden stuff that has no worth beyond the momentary comfort in my mouth.
~and I'm also a daughter who was brought up on home cooked meals back when calories meant nothing and taste was everything! That is an idea built into my system that's hard to shake! My mother raised 8 kids (I'm #7) on her home-cooking and I always teased her that she didn't raise a single skinny kid! I luckily inherited her great love of cooking and baking. (I miss you Mom!)
~finally, I'm "mom" to the best Bichon in the world. He is Quincy, our kid in a dogsuit. He's 13 years old, but still a puppy to us.
