Servings: 1
Ingredients
- Espresso or strong brewed coffee
- 1 shot (or 1 cup)
- Milk
- 1 cup
- Sugar
- 1 to 2 teaspoons, or to taste
- Vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Biscotti cookies
- 2, crumbled
- Cocoa powder
- for dusting
- Whipped cream

Instructions
- Begin by brewing a shot of espresso or a strong cup of coffee using your preferred method, ensuring it's rich and flavorful.
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is hot but not boiling. Be careful not to scorch the milk.
- Add the sugar and vanilla extract to the hot milk, stirring until completely dissolved to create a sweet, aromatic base.
- Transfer the hot milk mixture to a blender and blend on high speed for about 30 seconds, until it becomes frothy and light. Alternatively, you can use a milk frother if available.
- Take a serving mug and place the crumbled biscotti cookies at the bottom. Pour the hot espresso or coffee over the biscotti, allowing them to soak slightly for enhanced flavor.
- Gently pour the frothy milk over the coffee and biscotti, filling the mug to your desired level. This layering creates a beautiful presentation.
- Optional: Top your Biscotti Latte with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder for an added touch of indulgence.
