🧾 Ingredients
This is an overview of the ingredients. To see the complete list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
- Chocolate: I used semi-sweet chocolate chips. You could also use dark chocolate baking chunks.
- Coconut milk: Adds a rich creamy flavor. Light coconut milk will be too thin, so I don't recommend it.
- Instant coffee: Adds the coffee flavor. Instant espresso will also work.
- Salt: Enhances sweetness.
- Cacao powder (or cocoa powder): Adds a chocolaty flavor.

Notes
Nutrition
*Note: Nutrition information should be considered an estimate only. Different nutrition calculators give you different results.
**Important! If you are gluten-free you may want to avoid coffee altogether. I personally have never had a problem drinking it, and I have a gluten intolerance. It is probably because I drink whole-bean organic coffee, and grind it myself. I learned that it can be problematic for people who don't tolerate gluten. So I did some research and one article mentioned trying organic whole bean coffee because it isn't highly processed causing cross-reactivity issues. So please do the research yourself, and test it out. I try to only post recipes that are 100% gluten-free since I have a gluten intolerance. I am really careful about avoiding gluten in my daily life.
