-โ˜• The Morning Menu | Sugar Cookie Latte ๐Ÿช๐ŸŽ„ Novem -โ˜• The Morning Menu | Sugar Cookie Latte ๐Ÿช๐ŸŽ„

November is here, the Christmas tree is up, and apparently weโ€™re drinking cookies for breakfast now. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

Made a sugar cookie latte this morning, and the little dash of cake batter extract? VERY good decision. ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿช

**Hereโ€™s what went in:**

- 1 espresso pod
- 1 tbsp white chocolate sauce
- 2 tsp granulated sugar
- A little unsalted butter
- ยผ tsp vanilla bean paste
- A dash of cake batter extract
- Tiny pinch of kosher salt
- 7 oz frothed whole milk

I used a little regular unsalted butter, not browned, for that buttery sugar cookie flavor. Combined everything with the espresso and finished with warm, frothed milk.

Buttery, vanilla-y, and just enough cake batter flavor to make it taste like a sugar cookie. Christmas coffee season is officially underway. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽ„๐ŸคŽ

Tried the Sparkle Syrup that @runamokmaple kindly gifted me, and now my pancakes are apparently dressed better than I am.

Glittery maple syrup on a Sunday morning? Completely reasonable behavior. ๐ŸคŽ

I donโ€™t want to overreact, but Merry Christmas. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽ„โ˜•๏ธ

The tree is up, the coffee is made, and November 1st feels like a perfectly reasonable time to start celebrating.

If youโ€™re still emotionally attached to fall, I respect your journey. From over here. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

A little Saturday coffee before the Halloween chaos gets started. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽƒโ˜•๏ธ

The costumes, the candy, the excitementโ€ฆall of that can wait until Iโ€™ve had my coffee.

Happy Halloween from my kitchen to yours! ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿงก

Another morning, another very good reason to spend a few extra minutes making my coffee. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

A little peace, a good latte, and hopefully enough caffeine to handle whatever today has planned.

The coffee is ready. The rest of the day can figure itself out. โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚

Yesterday we went with dark chocolate. Today, white chocolate got her turn. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

Bourbon maple syrup, white chocolate sauce, vanilla, a little salt, espresso, and milk.

Same cozy maple situation, just a little sweeter and creamier today. And Iโ€™m not mad at either version. โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚

Dark chocolate and bourbon maple felt like the right direction this morning. ๐Ÿ‘€๐ŸคŽ

Dark chocolate sauce, bourbon maple syrup, vanilla, a little salt, espresso, and milk. Rich, a little smoky, and not overly sweet.

This one might need another cup tomorrow. ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜•๏ธ

The temperature dropped and that was really all the reason I needed. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

Todayโ€™s Italian penicillin was very much a โ€œuse what we have and get to the pickup line on timeโ€ situation. Frozen onions because thatโ€™s what the store had, dried herbs because I forgot the fresh ones, and extra Parmesan at the end because I forgot my Parmesan rind too. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Carrots, celery, onions, chicken broth, butter, herbs, Parmesan, and a whole box of orzo laterโ€ฆdinner still did exactly what it needed to do.

Warm, creamy, cozy, and everybody got fed. Iโ€™m calling that a win. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

A little bourbon maple in the coffee felt appropriate for a Monday morning. ๐Ÿ˜‚

1 tbsp bourbon maple syrup, 1 tbsp white chocolate sauce, clear vanilla, a little salt, espresso, and milk.

The maple + white chocolate together? Definitely keeping that combination in rotation. โ˜•๏ธ๐ŸคŽ
