These caffeinated recipes provide the perfect way to celebrate National Coffee Day. September 29th is officially known as National Coffee Day, meaning many people are eager to indulge in their favorite latte or espresso-based drink. However, these coffee-based recipes provide a tasty and unexpected way to celebrate the annual holiday.
While most people prefer to consume their coffee as a hot beverage, a rich and full-bodied roast can actually serve as an excellent baking ingredient. Coffee adds a rich taste that pairs well with flavors such as chocolate and caramel. Some examples of caffeinated desserts include gluten-free coffee cakes, tiramisu-inspired brownies and mocha swirl cookies.
Despite the fact that it is brewed at an extremely high temperature, coffee can also be incorporated into cold desserts as well. For example, coffee provides the perfect base for caffeinated chocolate ice pops. Coffee can also be added to ice cream to mimic the taste of familiar caffeinated drinks. Regardless of falling temperatures, a chilly espresso-inspired treat provides a delicious way to celebrate National Coffee Day.
