Ingredients
1 tablespoon vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup hot, strong coffee
1/8 teaspoon peppermint extract
1 and 1/4 cup steamed and frothed oat milk*
Plant-based whipped cream and crushed candy canes, for topping
Instructions
Add your chocolate chips to your 12 ounce coffee cup. Pour your hot coffee over the top and allow to sit for a minute or two. Then stir to ensure your chocolate chips are melted. If they aren’t, pop your coffee cup in the microwave (provided it’s a microwave-safe cup) for 20-30 seconds. Stir again to combine and melt completely.
Add your peppermint extract, then top with your steamed oat milk. Stir if desired.
Top with whipped cream and crushed candy canes!
Notes
* Wondering how to froth your milk? I gotcha covered!
Add milk to a jar and microwave until steaming. Add a lid, cover the lid with a towel to protect your hands, and carefully shake until frothed.
Heat milk on the stove and either whisk vigorously (doesn’t work great, but it’s fine in a pinch) or add it to a french press. You can quickly move the press up and down to froth the milk.
