Klah – Spiced Chocolate Coffee

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

If you have read the Dragonriders of Pern books, you understand the reference to Klah, otherwise it is simply a spiced chocolate coffee.

Combine the following:

  • 2 Tbsp sweet ground chocolate
  • 1/2 cup dark cocoa powder
  • 3/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. dark instant coffee crystals, ground into a fine powder
  • pinch of nutmeg

Use 2-4 tsp. of the mixture per cup of boiling water. Stir well. It should be thick, much like hot cocoa.

If you don’t use instant coffee, just add the rest of the mixture into the basket with the coffee grounds and brew as normal or brew your coffee with cinnamon added and add in the cocoa powders to the individual cups.

A warm, tasty treat!

And of course, it goes well with a good book.

Coffee Treats

Monday, August 20th, 2007

If you are having a small get together – a dinner party, a gathering of friends, game night, whatever – these are a wonderful way to end the evening. The ingredients list is small, and they only take a few minutes!
This recipe is per cup

double shot espresso OR 3 oz. brewed coffee – espresso is best, but drip will work fine
1 scoop vanilla ice cream (or cinnamon, chocolate, dulce de leche – just no chunks)
3 oz warm milk
cinnamon*
chocolate shavings
Place a scoop of ice cream in the cup & pour hot coffee over it to fill halfway. Fill the rest of the way with warm milk & sprinkle cinnamon & chocolate shavings on the top.

Serve & enjoy!

*for a slight change, sprinkle some ground cinnamon over the ground coffee before brewing it. It adds a subtle flavor & a nice aroma to the coffee!
