Hot chocolate has its formula — milk, chocolate, warmth, cream on top. This is the coffee version of that logic, with one extra step: chocolate cookies dissolved directly into the hot milk along with the instant coffee, then blended smooth with a hand blender until there are no traces of biscuit left, just a velvety, dark, intensely flavored drink. The cookies add body and a faint cocoa sweetness that rounds out the bitterness of the coffee without sugar doing all the work.
It takes fifteen minutes, serves three, and comes out of the cup looking like something from a café — whipped cream piped on top, a crumbled cookie scattered over it. The kind of thing that makes a cold afternoon considerably more bearable.
To prepare your Hot Coffee Cookie Drink, start by putting the milk in a saucepan over medium heat 1. When it is hot, add the Nescafé and dissolve it well 2, stirring with a whisk 3.
At this point, add the biscuits 4 and let them dissolve while continuing to stir. Once they are blended, use a hand blender to mix the mixture so there are no lumps 5. Set the biscuit mixture aside and prepare the cream: in a bowl, pour the cold cream and add the powdered sugar, whip with an electric whisk 6.
When the cream is firm 7, transfer it to a piping bag with a 1/2 inch star nozzle 8. Pour the biscuit mixture into the cup 9.
Squeeze a nice tuft of cream 1011 and crumble a biscuit on top 12. Serve the Hot Coffee Cookie Drink immediately.
