Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients:

• ½ cup of fresh strong coffee
• 1 oz. brandy
• 1 oz. Cointreau, or other orange liqueur
• 1 tsp. brown sugar
• whipped cream
• dark chocolate, grated

Method:
Poor hot coffee into a large wine glass, add sugar and stir to dissolve. Add brandy and liqueur, stir and mix. Float whipped cream on top (to prevent the cream for sinking, pour over back of a spoon). Sprinkle grated chocolate over top and serve immediately.

• Kahlua Coffee - substitute the brandy and liqueur for 2 oz. Kahlua.
