- Ice (enough to fill the glass)
- 120ml fresh milk
- 10g hazelnut syrup
- 2 shots espresso
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, combine 60g of chilled heavy whipping cream and 20g of chocolate powder. Ensure the cream is cold for better whipping consistency.
Step 2
Using a whisk, gently mix the ingredients until well combined. Be careful not to over-whisk, as this can cause separation. Mix just until the cream thickens slightly and the chocolate powder is fully incorporated without lumps. (Tip: If using pre-whipped spray cream and you want a thicker consistency, you can mix in a bit more chocolate powder.)
Step 3
Prepare your serving glass and fill it generously with ice cubes. The ice will keep your latte refreshingly cold and help create distinct layers.
Step 4
Pour 120ml of fresh milk over the ice. This forms the smooth base of your latte.
Step 5
Drizzle 10g of hazelnut syrup over the milk. You can adjust the amount of syrup to suit your sweetness preference.
Step 6
Slowly pour the 2 shots of freshly brewed espresso over the ice and milk. Pouring gently helps maintain the layers for a visually appealing drink.
Step 7
Carefully spoon or dollop the prepared chocolate cream on top of the espresso. Using the back of a spoon can help you place it neatly.
Step 8
For an extra touch of flavor and elegance, sprinkle finely chopped dark chocolate over the chocolate cream. This step is optional but highly recommended.
Step 9
Your delicious Hazelnut Chocolate Cream Latte is now ready! Enjoy this delightful homemade cafe-style beverage.
