Make this Homemade Chocolate Coffee Creamer recipe in minutes using simple ingredients to turn your morning coffee into a delightful mocha treat!

Homemade Chocolate Coffee Creamer

Well, since we missed our homemade coffee creamer recipe last month, I figured we better double up on them this month.  And what could be better than a decadent Homemade Chocolate Coffee Creamer to turn your morning coffee into a decadent mocha treat?!  Thankfully, this recipe is super simple to make in just a few quick minutes, and you probably already have most of the ingredients on hand!

For this chocolate coffee creamer, you can choose to use either cocoa powder or chocolate syrup.  Both are delicious, so you really can't go wrong.  But for the cocoa powder, you'll want to follow the directions carefully and pour the hot milk mixture over top of the cocoa powder so that it mixes in smooth without any clumps.

      It should last until the expiration on your milk and half-and-half or cream.

    Sounds delicious, must try. Are you using unsweetened cocoa powder?

    I am eager to try your recipe. It seems like every time I find a prepared chocolate creamer in the stores, they discontinue it, no matter what brand it is. I will let you know how I rate it once I make it and try it.

      I usually go by whatever the expiration date is on the milk and/or cream.

    If I don't have cream (I am trying to limit sat fat), can I go with all milk? How would that affect the result?

      It would be thinner and less rich, but would still work over all. You can also try fat free half and half instead of cream

    Great tasting and easy to make. Changed it slightly. Rather than using half milk/half cream, I just use half and half. Also I mix the sugar and cocoa together in the pan, then turn on the heat and add the half and half and stir. I continue to stir frequently until bubbles start to form around side of pan, then remove from heat. Thanks for the recipe! It's all I use now.
