Ingredients
For Each Latte
- 1½ ounces high quality bittersweet chocolate such as Ghirardelli
- ⅔ cup whole milk
- ½ cup strong hot coffee
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1½ ounces Bailey's Irish Cream
- 2 ounces Irish whiskey such as Jameson's
For Garnish
- Whipped Cream optional
- additional chocolate shavings optional
Instructions
- Use a microplane grater to finely grate the chocolate. Very carefully, transfer the chocolate shavings to a bowl (be careful - they are so light, they will become airborne and dust your kitchen with particles if you make any sudden movements -- and DON'T SNEEZE).
- Heat the milk and coffee over medium heat in a small saucepan until just hot, but not boiling.
- Remove from heat and whisk the chocolate shavings into the hot milk until they dissolve.
- Add the powdered sugar, whiskey and Bailey's. Whisk until well combined and pour into individual mugs.
- Top with a little whipped cream and chocolate shavings if desired.

Notes
