An extravagant coffee drink recipe!

Ingredients:

• ground coffee with infused spices (or add cinnamon and cardamom into the filter with the coffee grounds)
• heavy whipping cream
• a gingerbread cookie
• a solid chocolate truffle of desired darkness

Instructions:

1. Make the coffee in a coffee maker or press.
2. Whip the cream until firm but not split.
3. Pour the coffee on the bottom a large mug* (preferably a Christmas-themed one) and spoon the whipped cream on top.**
4. Garnish with crushed gingerbread cookie and grated chocolate.
5. Enjoy!

*If you wish to take this beverage to go, use a cardboard cup that's suitable for hot drinks.

**The coffee-to-cream ratio can be adjusted according to preference. 1:1 is a good starting point, but as the cream tends to melt into the hot coffee near the interface, you may want to experiment with ratios such as 1:3, or even 1:4.
