Lucky in Love Blog Hop

 

Here at Paranormal Romance Fans for Life, we are Lucky in Love! We have the opportunity to be surrounded by great books, great authors, and great readers.

• 1 cup whipping cream
• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
• 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon almond extract (Torani brand almond syrup is a wonderful replacement if you can find it in your area)

Directions:

1. In blender, combine all ingredients; blend until smooth.
2. Store tightly covered in refrigerator up to one month. (It won't last that long!) Shake bottle well before serving, and return remaining liqueur to refrigerator.
