Description

This topping or plate drizzle is easy to make and is a nice way to add some flair to banana breads, muffins, and simple coffee cakes.  The coffee cuts the sweetness of the chocolate syrup and gives a nice "grown up- flavor.   As a drizzle on the plate it leaves it up to the guest whether they want to use it for sweetness or leave the decoration where it is.

Ingredients

1⁄2chershey's chocolate syrup
1tinstant coffee

Instructions

  1. For best results put the chocolate syrup in the microwave to make it warm (makes the instant coffee disolve better).
  2. Add the instant coffee.
  3. Stir thoroughly until you can't see any solid particles of coffee.

Allowing the mixture to return to room temp or even slightly chilled makes it hold its form better once it is drizzled on the plate so it is recommended but no required.

 

Notes

This works similar to confectionery sugar added near or onto just about any appropriate dish improves the perceived quality of the dish (appropriate means don't put this on homefries Eye-wink )

Lots of options:

  • Drizzle it on the plate around the item being served.
  • Drizzle it over the top of what is being served.
  • Any left over sauce can be saved for the evening and put over the innkeeper's icecream or late night snack.
