Thirsty Thursday!

Mocha Coconut Frappuccino


Makes 2 servings

Ingredients:

½ cup shredded coconut

¾ cup strong coffee (chilled)

1 cup low fat milk

1/3 cup Hersheys chocolate syrup

3 tablespoons sugar

2 cups ice

Whipped cream for garnish

To make:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Spread shredded coconut on a baking sheet and toast coconut in the oven. Stir the coconut around every 10 minutes or so for even browning. After 15-20 minutes remove and cool. Combine the cold coffee, milk, 1/3 cup of the coconut, the chocolate syrup, and sugar in a blender. Blend for 15 – 20 seconds to dissolve sugar. Add ice and blend until ice is crushed. Pour into 2 glasses. Garnish with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup and the remaining coconut.
