Easy Cappuccino Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 10 min.

Yield: 1 Servings

5 5 10

Ingredients

1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup hot brewed Easy Espresso

Directions

Place milk in a 1-cup microwave-safe measuring cup. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 1 minute or until milk is hot and small bubbles form around edge of cup.
Place a metal whisk in cup; whisk vigorously by holding whisk handle loosely between palms and quickly rubbing hands back and forth. Remove foam to a small measuring cup as it forms. Continue whisking until foam measures 1/3 cup; set aside.
Pour Easy Espresso into a mug; pour in remaining hot milk. Spoon foam over top and serve immediately. Yield: 1 serving.

Editor's Note: You may also use a portable mixer with whisk attachment to froth the milk. This recipe was tested in a 1,100-watt microwave.
