A rich and creamy Chocolate Hazelnut Latte combining the boldness of espresso with the sweet, nutty flavor of chocolate hazelnut spread, topped with steamed milk and a decorative touch of chocolate sauce or cocoa powder. Perfect for cozy mornings or indulgent coffee breaks.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) hot espresso or strongly brewed coffee

Flavoring

  • 1–1 1/2 tablespoons (18–27 grams) chocolate hazelnut spread (store-bought or homemade)

Milk

  • 3/4 cup (177 milliliters) milk (dairy or non-dairy, steamed)

Garnish

  • Chocolate sauce or cocoa powder (for decorating the top)

Instructions

  1. Mix Chocolate Hazelnut Spread with Espresso: Place the chocolate hazelnut spread in the bottom of a heat-safe mug or glass. Pour in the hot espresso or strongly brewed coffee and stir thoroughly until the chocolate hazelnut spread is completely blended with the coffee, creating a smooth, rich base.
  2. Add Steamed Milk: Hold the mug at a slight 45˚ angle and slowly pour the steamed milk into the center of the mug. This technique helps to create a thin layer of foam on top and ensures the latte is creamy and balanced in flavor.
  3. Garnish and Serve: Decorate the top of the latte with chocolate sauce or a sprinkle of cocoa powder to enhance flavor and presentation. Serve immediately to enjoy the latte at its freshest and warmest.

Notes

  • Use freshly brewed espresso or strong coffee for the best flavor.
  • Steamed milk can be dairy or any plant-based milk such as almond, oat, or soy milk, depending on preference.
  • Adjust the amount of chocolate hazelnut spread based on your desired sweetness and richness.
  • For homemade chocolate hazelnut spread, you can blend toasted hazelnuts with melted chocolate and a touch of sweetener.
  • Use a milk frother or steam wand to achieve proper milk texture and foam.
  • Decorate with cocoa powder or chocolate syrup for added visual appeal and flavor contrast.
