Frozen Latte and 'Paying It Forward' give away link

I love a perfect cup of coffee, or a mocha or a hazelnut latte. Hot, cold, or frozen and blended, it doesn't matter. I have loved coffee ice cream for as long as I can remember. And coffee cake also. Oh wait that doesn't actually have coffee in it. Back to actual coffee. David Lebovitz wrote about Vietnamese Coffee Popsicles back in July. I made them once and since I did not know what to do with the leftover sweetened condensed milk, I upped the amounts in the basic recipe after that. Yes I have made them 3 times in a month and did some sharing too. Told you I like coffee.


VIETNAMESE COFFEE POPSICLES
3 cups of very, very strong coffee (I used 8 heaping tablespoons per batch)
1 can of sweetened condensed milk (no not evaporated)
1/2 - 1 t cinnamon

Using a whisk or a blender, add hot coffee to sweetened condensed milk and cinnamon until completely blended.
Pour into molds or cups, whatever works for you.
Freeze 45 minutes to 1 hour and add sticks if desired.

This made about 4 cups of mix. They are strong so don't make them too big or you will be up all night. I made the cone shaped ones out of extra pastry bags, cut to size, clipped onto the side of a plastic cup, 2-3 per cup or you can make wax paper cones. I think they are better when they just begin to soften. And of course dark or white chocolate shavings or Dulce de Leche bring it up to a dessert level. Sprinkle them around and on top or when the mix chills and begins to set, stir them in, chill more, then add the sticks if desired.


I also made witches tits, oops I mean hats. They are cute aren't they? Same recipe, just made in pastry bags. I am still working on photos but I can finally center things now.
