Ingredients
Liquid Ingredients
- 1 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Flavorings
- 1–2 tablespoons cookie butter
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional)
Toppings
- Whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- Brew Coffee: Brew 1 cup of espresso or strong coffee and set it aside to prepare the flavored milk.
- Heat Milk: Pour 3/4 cup of milk into a small saucepan and heat it over medium-low heat until warm but not boiling, to gently soften the cookie butter and allow flavors to meld.
- Add Flavorings: Whisk in 1-2 tablespoons of cookie butter, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of brown sugar (if using) into the warm milk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Combine Latte: Pour the brewed coffee into a mug and add the flavored milk mixture. Stir thoroughly to blend the coffee and cookie butter milk evenly.
- Serve: Top the latte with whipped cream if desired for an extra indulgent touch and serve warm immediately for best flavor.
Notes
- Adjust cookie butter quantity to control sweetness and intensity of flavor.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with oat or almond milk.
- Sprinkle crushed cookies or a pinch of cinnamon on top for a decorative, flavorful garnish.
