28 Reviews of Steaming Mocha Cocoa

This is GREAT! I don't usually like hot chocolate made with milk but the coffee flavor helps mask the hot milk taste. I didn't realize I was supposed to use actual coffee grounds until after I used instant decaf and then I read "strain" and thought huh? and then re-read the ingredients...anyways I'm glad I did use the instant because it had a great flavor and no straining required! Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders. *I forgot to say that I used 1% milk and 1 tbsp of Splenda brown sugar blend.

    This was a great way to have a low-fat mocha at home! It tasted almost like the coffee shop varieties. A very rich treat...almost not sugary enough for me though. I used instant decaf coffee only because it's night time and I didn't have any ground decaf around. I read a review of this recipe and just had to make it pronto.

    Fantastic is the best word I can think of for this cozy drink! I changed the proportions to serve only 1 since I'm the only coffee addict in the house. I'm wondering if leftovers would heat up well if refrigerated. Maybe it would even be great cold!? I'll try that next time. I used skim milk, Splenda brown sugar and dark cocoa. Thanks Boomette1. (Super photo too, Annacia.)

    Great flavor and easy to make. I added one splenda packet but I like things sweet. Topped it with whipped cream and just a dash of cinnamon sugar, yum!

    I enjoyed this for breakfast. It had a really good flavor but I had a little trouble getting the coffee grains out. I tried using a coffee filter but the cocoa was too thick (maybe because of the milk?) to go through. I used the finesest strainer I had but my cup still had coffee grounds in it. Next time I think I'll try it with instant coffee and fix that little problem right up! I added some whipped cream too

    This was just wonderful. I also used instant coffee (regular), a little less cocoa, no brown sugar or vanilla & used a Splenda pkt (I used about 1/2 cup skim milk). I sprinkled the top with cinnamon & it was quite a treat! Thanks so much for sharing.

    I knew this recipe would not disappoint me. I love chocolate and coffee and I know they are both great together. I made this for my DH and I and he really loved it and he is not a big chocolate lover.
