Yield Makes 1 large mug

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 ounces water
1/4 cup espresso ground coffee (preferably Illy espresso coffee, fine grind)
8 ounces milk
Sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Pour the water into the bottom chamber of the stovetop espresso pot. Fill the filter basket that fits over the water with the coffee, tamping down gently. Place on the stovetop burner over medium-low heat. Watch carefully and remove from the heat as soon as the intense boiling has stopped, about 2 minutes. It is complete when all the water has boiled through the filter into the top part of the pot.
  • Meanwhile place the milk in a 16-ounce coffee mug. Heat in the microwave until hot but not starting to bubble on the sides. (Alternatively, you may heat the milk on the stovetop in a small pan, then transfer to a mug.)
  • Hold the handle of a small 4-inch whisk between the palms of both hands. Put the whisk in the hot milk and twirl rapidly back and forth until foam appears on the top, about 20 seconds. Pour the coffee into the mug. Sweeten if desired and serve immediately.

I love this cappuccino! It's the perfect pick-me-up in the afternoon. The coffee is strong and flavorful, and the milk is perfectly steamed. The froth is thick and creamy, and it stays that way for a long time. I highly recommend this recipe!

I'm not a coffee drinker, but I love this cappuccino! The chocolate powder adds a delicious sweetness that makes it irresistible. I've even started making it for my friends who are coffee drinkers, and they all love it too.
