Baby, it's cold outside!


I won't go on and on about how anti-cold I am, but seriously,I'm freeeeeezzzzziiiiinnnnggggg!!! I do have an amazing remedy though! Dulce de leche coffee! All I can say is... DELICIOUS! Seriously, you have to try it. I made it last night after dinner for me and my sweetie to drink by the fire. It'll warm you up in no time. One way it will do that is give you extra padding-ha! (just bein' honest) Anyway...here's the recipe:

4 cups brewed strong, good coffee
6 oz. dulce de leche (bar or liquid form-I found mine at Publix)
2 tbsp. sugar
1 cup heavy whipping cream
chocolate shavings for garnish

Brew coffee, add dulce de leche and stir til dissolved. Whip the cream with the sugar til stiff. Pour coffee halfway in glass, then dollop on a generous amount of the cream on top. Using a microplane, shave any type choc. over the cream. The recipe was originally on the Pioneer Woman's blog(link button on right.)
I knew something was wrong when my ipod kept randomly choosing workout songs. The signs were everywhere, and I just kept on ignoring them. I think if I make this drink very often, I will have to truly face the music-no pun intended :)

Enjoy!
p.s. Isn't my gigantic Starbucks cup cool? I got it at a garage sale for.25! How bout that for bargains!
