-β˜•The Morning Menu | Brown Sugar Dark Chocolate Mo -β˜•The Morning Menu | Brown Sugar Dark Chocolate Mocha🍫🀎

Made yesterday’s coffee again because I wasn’t done with it yet. πŸ˜‚β˜•οΈ

A little dark brown sugar sprinkled over the coffee grounds before brewing in the moka pot, Β½ tbsp dark chocolate sauce, a pinch of salt, and a splash of Molina vanilla.

Sometimes the morning coffee experiment is so good you just run it back the next day. No notes. πŸ˜‚πŸ€Ž

Three sticks of butter, six eggs, heavy whipping cream, and a whole lot of vanilla. So yeah, we’re not making a light dessert today. πŸ˜‚

Golden, buttery pound cake with that rich, tender crumb and a vanilla glaze that dries into a sweet little sugar crust. 🀎

Back with the moka pot this morning, but this time I sprinkled a little dark brown sugar right over the coffee grounds before brewing. πŸ‘€β˜•οΈ

Β½ tbsp dark chocolate sauce, a pinch of salt, a splash of Molina vanilla, and that brown sugar moka pot coffee.

Rich, chocolatey, and just a little extra sweetness from the brown sugar. I do enjoy finding new ways to complicate a perfectly good cup of coffee. πŸ˜‚πŸ€Ž

-🍽️ What’s for Dinner | Red Beans & Rice + Honey C -🍽️ What’s for Dinner | Red Beans & Rice + Honey Cornbread🍯🀎

Red beans and rice for dinner tonight, so obviously we needed some cornbread. πŸ˜‚

Fresh out of the oven, a generous drizzle of honey, and a little kosher salt on top because sweet and salty cornbread is a very serious matter around here. πŸ‘€πŸ€Ž

The cornbread might not make it to dinner at this rate. πŸ˜‚

Pulled out the moka pot this morning because sometimes I like to make my coffee routine a little more involved than necessary. πŸ˜‚β˜•οΈ

1 tbsp dark chocolate sauce, a pinch of salt, a splash of Molina vanilla, and freshly brewed moka pot coffee. Finished with candy cane finishing sugar for a little peppermint crunch. 🍬

Dark chocolate and peppermint just belong together this time of year. No further explanation needed. πŸ˜‚πŸ€Ž

-πŸ₯ Fresh From the Bakery | Brown Butter Chocolate -πŸ₯ Fresh From the Bakery | Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Cinnamon Rolls πŸͺ🍫🀎

Because putting chocolate chip cookies inside cinnamon rolls felt like a perfectly reasonable thing to do. πŸ˜‚

Eight big, fluffy cinnamon rolls baked in my cast iron skillet, stuffed with brown sugar cinnamon filling and pieces of my homemade brown butter chocolate chip cookie dough, then finished with salted brown sugar cream cheese frosting.

Basically, two of my favorite things got together and nobody thought to stop them. πŸ˜‚πŸ€Ž

And those little pockets of melted chocolate throughout? Yeah, we need to talk about those. πŸ‘€πŸ«

Honey and dark chocolate might be one of my favorite little coffee combinations. The honey adds a different kind of sweetness, and that pinch of salt brings everything together. πŸ‘€πŸ€Ž

Β½ tbsp dark chocolate sauce, Β½ tbsp honey, a splash of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, espresso, and frothed milk.

Nothing over the top this morning. Just a rich, cozy mocha with a little honey sweetness. And she’s GOOD. πŸ˜‚β˜•οΈ

Some people put sprinkles on cookies. I put them in my coffee. Along with edible glitter, because moderation has never been the goal here. πŸ˜‚βœ¨

1 tbsp dark chocolate sauce, a splash of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, espresso, and frothed milk. Finished with Christmas sprinkles and edible glitter.

Rich chocolate, a little salt, and enough sparkle to make a regular morning feel slightly more festive. πŸ˜‚πŸ€Ž

Dark chocolate and white chocolate are sharing the spotlight again this morning because choosing just one felt unnecessary. πŸ˜‚β˜•οΈ

Β½ tbsp dark chocolate sauce, Β½ tbsp white chocolate sauce, a splash of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, espresso, and frothed milk.

Rich, creamy, and just the right amount of chocolate to start the day. Some mornings, simple is the whole point. 🀎
