coffee, coffee, coffee

Since I started drinking coffee about 8 years ago, for medical reasons, I am always looking for yummy ways to make coffee.  I came across this recipe today at www.simplebites.net.

Flavored Toffee Caramel Dessert Coffee

  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 cup milk chocolate toffee bits (Such as Heath Bar bits)
  • 5 cups hot brewed coffee (decaf is fine)
  • 2 Tablespoons caramel sauce or ice cream topping
  1. In a small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add vanilla and sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready for use.
  2. Stir toffee bits into hot brewed coffee. Let sit for two minutes then strain and discard any leftover bits.
  3. Divide coffee into 5 separate mugs. Top with whipped topping then drizzle with caramel sauce.

  1. really?! you GET to drink coffee? Is there a medical reason to drink Dr. Pepper?? According to my dentist, there is medical reason to STOP drinking soda. I disagree - what does he know. :) Love reading your blog. How quiet your house must be with only Bre around. Good job on the couch-5K!

  2. I do get to drink coffee. I have extremely low blood pressure and need a stimulant to help raise it. My doctor told me to either drink tea, coffee, or caffeinated soda. To be honest I can't stand any those, but I can doctor up coffee enough to tolerate it, although I don't like the extra calories. My house isn't all that quite I have Bre! But she is now enjoying the one-on-one time we are getting. Thanks on the 5k training.
