- 1/2 cup instant coffee
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 cup instant non-fat dry milk
powder
- 1/2 cup powdered coffee creamer
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
This recipe has to be powdered in a
blender. The vanilla makes things clumpy
because it is a liquid, and the heaviness of
the sugar makes it sink to the bottom while
the coffee creamer rises to the top.
Blending the mixture, takes care of all of
these problems. Measure all of the
ingredients (even the vanilla) into a
blender container. Put the lid on. Process
the mixture for about a minute, or until it
is all powdery smooth, and the texture is
even. This is actually a lot less work than
it sounds like, and the texture is so
impressively professional, that you may want
to blend all of your coffee mixes from now
on. Store in a container with a good lid.
Makes 1- 2/3 cups.
This is very similar to Straight Up Latte,
available for $3.50 a box from Foldger's.
Mine is a tiny bit stronger, and a little
less sweet. I think it tastes better than
the store-bought stuff, but I am a little
biased.
To Prepare: Combine 3/4 cup of
boiling water and 2 to 3 tablespoons of the
mix. Stir to dissolve and serve.
