Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled – Adds bold, roasted flavor.

• 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter – The star of the show.
• 2 tablespoons sugar (optional, adjust to taste) – Sweetens the drink.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Brew and Cool Your Coffee

• Brew 1 cup of strong coffee and let it cool to room temperature.
• For quicker cooling, place it in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes.

Step 2: Blend the Base

• In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, milk, peanut butter, sugar (if using), and ice.
• Blend on high until smooth and frothy, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• Taste and adjust sweetness or peanut butter as desired.

Step 3: Serve and Garnish

• Pour into a tall glass.
• Top with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and a sprinkle of crushed Reese’s Pieces or chocolate chips.
• Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy!

Serving and Storage Tips

Serve your frappuccino right after blending for the best texture. It’s at its frosty, creamy best when fresh.

If you want to prep ahead, brew and chill your coffee in advance and measure your ingredients. Then just blend and serve when ready.

Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for a few hours, but the texture may change. Re-blend with a bit of ice before serving again.

Helpful Notes

• Make it Dairy-Free: Use oat or almond milk and skip the whipped cream.
• Extra Thick: Add more ice or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
• Add Protein: Blend in a scoop of chocolate or vanilla protein powder.
• Sugar-Free Option: Use a sugar substitute or skip the sugar entirely.
• No Coffee?: Substitute with cold brew or even milk for a kid-friendly version.
