STEP BY STEP DIRECTIONS
This recipe idea is so easy, here is a step by step tutorial to make it extra simple.
STEP ONE: DECORATE ICE CREAM SANDWICH
This is your chance to make your delicious Fat Boy Ice Cream Sandwich extra fancy. Think sprinkles or a drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce. Once you are done, set it in the freezer on some parchment or wax paper until you are ready to assemble your epic iced coffee.
STEP TWO: PREPARE YOUR GLASS
Get your glass ready with dripping chocolate and caramel syrups on the inside and a little on the outside. Set into the freezer while you continue to prepare your coffee.
STEP THREE: PREPARE FROTHY CREAM
Since making frothy milk can be touch and go and involves steps to heat milk, I decided to do a frothy cream instead.
To make a frothy cream for your coffee, add ⅓ Cup of Heavy Cream to a high powered blender or stand mixer and turn on high. Beat/blend the cream until it becomes a fluffy froth but BEFORE it turns into whipped cream with peaks. Set in the refrigerator while you continue to prepare your iced coffee treat.
STEP FOUR:
In a separate cup, pour the desired amount of Starbucks Unsweetened Iced Coffee into your glass and start by adding 1 TBSP each of chocolate sauce and caramel sauce and mix. Do a taste test to see if you would like to add more. You may also add extra sweetener here if desired. Once set to taste, pour the iced coffee blend into your serving glass. Add a small dash of heavy cream to the top but don't mix. Follow by topping the iced coffee with the desired amount of frothy cream and again, don't mix it.
STEP FIVE:
Start decorating by placing your donut on top of the rim of the glass. Follow by adding your remaining "freak style" toppers including your decorated Fat Boy Ice Cream Sandwich, candies, whipped cream and sprinkles. Don't forget a straw!
Voila! You now have your IG worthy iced coffee. Be sure to snap a photo and share with us!
