  • 1 cup Hot coffee
  • ΒΌ cup Milk any percentage
  • 1 tablespoon Heavy cream optional
  • Whipped cream Whipped cream for topping, optional

Instructions
 

  • In a small pot or microwave-safe cup, stir together granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and water. Heat on the stove (or in your microwave for about 15 seconds), and stir until sugar and cocoa powder dissolve and sauce is completely smooth.
  • Stir in hot coffee and milk and continue to heat until steaming (about 30 seconds in the microwave). If making on the stove, you can whisk the mixture vigorously until foamy.
  • Pour into a cup, top with whipped cream if desired, and enjoy!
