Toasted White Chocolate Mocha – Skip the line and the trip to the coffee shop and make your favorite mocha at home in a few simple steps!
Do you make the trip to the coffee shop each day to pick up your favorite drink? That can add up each day! No only the cost but also the time it takes. You can make them so much cheaper and faster at home. With ingredients you probably already have on hand too!
I love making copycat recipes like this Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade. There is just something about them that is so satisfying to replicate at home. So this white chocolate mocha is next up in the coffee shop menu.
A Toasted White Chocolate Mocha is a staple on the Starbucks menu. The toasted white chocolate gives it such a different and delicious flavor. It is almost a caramelized nutty flavor. So much better than just plain white chocolate!
Toasting white chocolate is actually pretty easy. You really just place white chocolate on a baking sheet and bake at 200 degrees. It takes about 45-50 minutes, with gently stirring it every 10 minutes. So it is a process, but it is still super easy!
The white chocolate may start to clump and look strange while you are toasting it, but don’t worry this is normal! You just want to gently stir the chocolate, so all of the sides get nice and toast. Once the chocolate starts to slightly change color you know you are done. Just remove from the oven and let cool. I like to make about 8 ounces of white chocolate at a time. Then I just store it in an air tight container.
How to Make a White Chocolate Mocha
A mocha starts with strong black coffee and lots of milk and just a little bit of cream to make it nice and thick. The white chocolate gets melted in with the milk and then everything is all mixed together. I like to add a little sugar to sweeten, and you can adjust that level for your taste.
Toasted White Chocolate Mocha
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup strong brewed coffee
- 2 Tablespoons toasted white chocolate
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1-2 teaspoons sugar
Instructions
- To make toasted white chocolate preheat oven to 200 degrees. Spread pieces of white chocolate or white chocolate chips on a baking sheet. Bake for 40-50 minutes, gently stirring every 10 minutes. The chocolate will get clumpy and start to break down slightly. But as soon as it starts to change color it is done. Remove and let cool. Store in an air tight container until ready to use.
- In a small sauce pan heat milk and heavy cream over medium low heat until it is steaming, be careful not to bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add white chocolate. Whisk until chocolate is melted and it is foamy.
- Add coffee and sugar and mix until combined. Pour into 2 mugs to serve. Top with whipped cream if desired.
