This Coconut Nutella Latte from Jocelyn of the Inside BruCrew Life blog is like a coffee dessert. Perfect for when you want to sit back and actually enjoy a warm beverage, the drink is also easily transferred into a travel mug for your morning commute.
The combination of coconut and the famous chocolate hazelnut spread is not common, but is uncommonly delicious. In addition to Nutella and cream of coconut, the coffee recipe calls for ingredients like skim milk, brewed coffee, Cool Whip and sprinkles for topping. However, if you have dietary restrictions or allergies, you can easily substitute the skim milk for your non-dairy alternative of choice, whether it be soy, almond, rice or even hemp.
