Ingredients

Espresso

1 shot

Whole milk

1 cup

Granulated sugar

1-2 teaspoons, to taste

Cocoa powder

1 teaspoon, for garnish

Whipped cream

1/4 cup, for topping

Instructions

1. Brew a shot of espresso using your preferred method (espresso machine, stovetop, etc.) and set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling, stirring gently to avoid scorching. Stir in the granulated sugar until completely dissolved, adjusting the sweetness to your liking.
3. Using a milk frother or a whisk, froth the milk until it becomes creamy and foamy, creating a light and airy texture that will enhance the layers of your drink.
4. In a clear glass or coffee mug, carefully pour a layer of frothed milk to fill about one-third of the glass, creating a beautiful base for the espresso.
5. Gently pour the brewed espresso over the frothed milk, allowing it to create a distinct layer without mixing, showcasing the stunning contrast between the dark espresso and the light milk.
6. Top with another layer of frothed milk, filling the glass to just below the rim for a luxurious finish that invites indulgence.
7. Sprinkle cocoa powder on top for added flavor and visual appeal, enhancing the overall experience of this delightful beverage.
8. Garnish with a generous dollop of whipped cream, allowing it to float atop the coffee, enhancing its indulgent character and inviting you to dive in.
9. Serve immediately and enjoy your charming Matryoshka Doll Coffee, savoring each layer and the delightful flavors that unfold.
