When it comes to coffee, the sweeter the better for me! Coffee is like dessert in a cup to me, and easily so, the calories can get right up there! I don’t mind the occasional coffee shop splurge, but for a more realistic lifestyle, I prefer to make my own coffee at home, that way I can control the ingredients and limit the calorie amount a bit!
One of my favorite guilty pleasures is a mochaccino latte! The more chocolatey, the better! This is my go-to coffee recipe to make at home. It has a smooth and creamy chocolatey texture and best of all I can make it in minutes. There’s no need to spend $6 per cup or wait in the line at the drive-thru to get the perfect blend of chocolate and coffee!

-10 oz. fresh brewed coffee (your preference)

1. Brew your favorite coffee of choice, then set aside to cool.

This mochaccino latte can get pretty decadent, so anywhere to save on calories is key! Rather than using heavy creamers, I prefer to use Hood Calorie Countdown for a creamy and delicious latte. This is the major calorie saver of this recipe, as it has 56% fewer calories, 75% less sugar and 67% fewer carbohydrates than traditional chocolate milk.
If you don’t want your latte too chocolatey, although this is a mochaccino, you can use fat-free Hood Calorie Countdown instead for 42% fewer calories, 75% less sugar and 67% fewer carbohydrates than milk.
