Creamy Nutella Coffee Latte Delight
A silky, chocolate-hazelnut latte made by whisking creamy Nutella into hot espresso and topping with steamed milk and a touch of whipped cream. Quick to make at home for a cozy treat.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
Latte
- 2 fl oz espresso or very strong brewed coffee
- 1 tbsp + 1 tsp Nutella or other chocolate-hazelnut spread
- 2/3 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened plant milk)
- pinch ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp whipped cream
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Pull a double shot of espresso or brew about 2 fl oz of very strong coffee. Keep it piping hot and set aside in your serving mug.
- Spoon the Nutella into the hot espresso. Use a small whisk or spoon to vigorously stir until the spread has fully melted and the espresso turns shiny and smooth (about 20–30 seconds).
- Warm the milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it steams and tiny bubbles form at the edges (do not boil). Stir in a pinch of ground cinnamon while heating to infuse the flavor.
- Froth the warmed milk with a handheld frother, French press, or by shaking vigorously in a lidded jar for 20–30 seconds until light and slightly foamy.
- Pour the milk into the mug over the Nutella-coffee mixture, holding back the foam with a spoon. Finish by spooning the foam on top, then add a generous dollop of whipped cream.
- Dust the top with a little extra cinnamon or cocoa if desired and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
For a richer finish use whole milk or a barista-style oat milk. The latte can be made ahead by combining Nutella and espresso, storing chilled, then reheating gently and adding warmed milk.
