\"Mocha<\/a><\/p>\n

Are you looking for a grown-up hot chocolate? Look no farther. This combination of cocoa, stovetop espresso and Amaretto<\/a> topped with whipped cream will satisfy. The espresso lends its own unique coffee flavor to this libation. but if you do not have access to an espresso maker, stovetop or mechanical, you can use freshly brewed double strength coffee. As for the Amaretto, make it Luxardo<\/a>, the most glorious of all. Whip your cream ever so softly, just to thicken it, and don’t omit the 1\/8 teaspoon almond extract. It may not sound like much, but it works magic on the whipped cream.<\/p>\n
