Ingredients

  • 1 cup half & half
  • 2-3 Tbsp brown sugar (2 Tbsp if you like it less sweet; 3 Tbsp if you prefer a sweeter creamer)
  • 2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp instant espresso powder
  • 1/4 tsp peppermint extract (peppermint extract is really strong, and a little goes a long way. If 1/4 tsp is not minty enough, feel free to add more)

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk half & half over med-low heat, until it begins to simmer.
  • Add in brown sugar (I used 2 Tbsp, but if you prefer sweeter creamer, use 3 Tbsp), and whisk until combined with half & half.
  • Add in cocoa powder and espresso powder, and whisk until completely dissolved.
  • Lastly, add in peppermint extract. Turn off the heat and allow to creamer to cool down.
  • Store in an airtight container, such as a glass jar with a lid.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

*The creamer lasts about 7-10 days when covered and refrigerated.
