White chocolate mocha sauce

For some reason, white chocolate sauce is one of the most luxurious things I think I’ve ever made. I’ve always had a long love story with white chocolate and now to know that I can make it at home makes my heart so happy. Ever since I started making it at home, I use it for iced drinks, hot signature espresso drinks with my Breville Barista Express, and even to just tweeted my warm milk. That actually has become a favorite drink of time too!

Making this recipe at home will also allow you to sweeten your drink as much or as little as your want while also being really creative with the mix-ins you decide to add.

I know that adding some vanilla bean powder, a pump of cinnamon dolce, or even some vanilla syrup to the mix will help you not only elevate your drink but create something even more magical.

Honesty you can use your favorite coffee and it would turn out great regardless.

As far as milk, use your favorite as well. I have used skim milk, whole milk, almond milk, and oat milk, and they all work so well with this chocolate sauce.

    This is delicious!
    Just an FYI: this made about 14 oz. of syrup.
    With a shot of espresso and 4 oz. of foamed milk, I used 3 T.
    Which is perfect for me who always asks for one less of however many pumps Starbucks puts in their hot drinks. Not overly sweet.
    It was sweet enough with 2 ? But the white chocolate flavor was much more subtle.
    I have it chilling in my fridge and it’s way better than any store bought White Chocolate Syrups that I have tried.
