Peppermint Coffee Cream

Submitted by Annacia

"This is fun and delicious. It's ideal for winter parties. I hung a very small candy cane on the glasses. Start the coffee brewing and let a friend whip the cream just a bit while you shave the chocolate."

I made this coffee exactly as written. It was super. I really enjoyed this delicious treat. I am so glad that I keep a box of candy canes on hand all year...just for treats like this. The simple ingredients are often the best. Thanks so much for sharing your tasty treat Coffee Queen.

I used 2 ounces of white creme de menthe with 8 ounces of hot coffee. No sugar. And added whipped cream. It was good and perfect for the cold I have. I didn't take photo since I didn't have mint chocolate. Thanks Annacia :) Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
