Easter Egg Mocha Recipe
We all love Easter eggs! But don’t gobble them all up before you try our decadent Easter Egg Mocha!
A fun twist on the classic mocha, using Easter Eggs melted into an espresso shot for a smooth chocolate flavour!
What Easter Eggs To Use
There really is no right or wrong answer here. Whatever you have left over after the kids have had their share will do, or try these options:
- Solid mini eggs or hollow eggs for the straight up smooth chocolate mocha experience
- Caramello mini eggs – the gooey caramel filling in these eggs adds an extra sweet caramel to your mocha. Top with caramel sauce drizzle for that extra special finish.
- Mini Cream eggs – Sweet, gooey with a hint of white chocolate and caramel. Also great as an Ice Latte.
- Hazelnut Praline – Hazelnut, chocolate and coffee is a match made in heaven.
Hot Mocha or Ice Latte
Hot Easter Egg Mocha
It doesn’t matter where you are in the world, Easter falls at the time of year when the weather is still cool (Northern Hemisphere) or starting to cool down (Southern Hemisphere) so a nice warm Easter Egg Mocha is going to feel right at home on Easter morning. You can enjoy your treat while the kids hunt for their hidden eggs. Just don’t let on there are some in your coffee!
Ice Latte
If Ice Latte’s are your thing then it is super easy to turn our Easter Egg Mocha into an iced drink. And you can go crazy with chocolate and caramel drizzle, ice cream or whipped cream to make it one over-the-top Easter treat!
Affogato Dessert
Want to make this into dessert? Start with your Easter eggs of choice and a scoop of ice cream in a dessert bowl. Pour over your espressso shot and top with crushed mini eggs, chocolate sauce or chocolate shavings.
