CHERRY MOCHA COFFEE

Steps:

• 1. In a coffee cup; heat water and coffee in the microwave until hot. (Or heat the water and coffee ontop the stove in a small saucepan.)
• 2. Add the cocoa powder and sugar; stir well to dissolve.
• 3. Now add the extracts, and stir.
• 4. Top the coffee with desired amount of Reddi Wip.
• 5. Place the cherry ontop the whipped topping, and serve.
• 6. Note: To make 12-ounces of the coffee... use 12 ounces of water, 1-1/2 teaspoons of instant coffee, 1/4 teaspoon plus an 1/8 teaspoon of almond extract, an 1/4 teaspoon plus an 1/8 teaspoon of cherry extract, 2-1/4 teaspoons of the special dark cocoa powder, plus 1-1/2 tablespoons of sugar. This is what I used to fill my glass coffee cup.

CHERRY CHIP COOKIES I

Steps:

• Combine margarine, confectioner's sugar and vanilla. Beat until fluffy. Add flour, baking soda and oats. Mix well. Stir in cherry flavored chips (other flavors work well, too!).
• Drop by rounded teaspoonful onto ungreased cookie sheets and flatten slightly with fingers. Bake for 12 minutes. Remove immediately from cookie sheets and onto wire racks to cool.

CHERRY MOCHA COFFEE, LOW-CARB

Steps:

• I make large servings which are close to 16 oz. coffee each, so make this in a LARGE mug.
• Multiply the recipe for the number of people you are serving.
• Make the whipped cream while waiting for coffee to brew. In a bowl add all other ingredients (cream, flavorings, sweetener and cocoa). Use an electric mixer to whip the cream until soft peaks form. Do not overwhip as it will quickly turn to butter consistency.
• Put whipping cream mixture in mug. Pour hot coffee over cream and stir. For best results, mix thoroughly.
• If you are making for several people and some people want sugar and some want Splenda, make the whipped cream without the sweetener. Instead, add the 2 Tblsp. sweetener to each cup, as preferred. Pour a little coffee over the sweetener and mix. Then add the cream to each cup. Then fill the mug the rest of the way with hot coffee and stir.

BLACK FOREST MOCHA

Steps:

• In large mug, stir together coffee, Hershey's Chocolate Syrup, cream and cherry juice. Garnish with whipped cream and cherry, if desired. Serve immediately.

CHERRY MOCHA

CHOCOLATE MOCHA LIQUEUR CAKE II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 10 inch Bundt pan. Place the ground nuts in pan and roll the pan around to coat the inside with nuts.
• In a large bowl, stir together cake mix and pudding mix. Make a well in the center and pour in eggs, oil, coffee liqueur and water. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl, and beat 4 minutes on medium speed. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Pour sauce over the cake while still in the pan. Let stand 30 minutes before removing from pan.
• To make the sauce: In a saucepan, combine sugar, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup coffee liqueur and margarine. Bring to a boil, then continue to boil for 2 minutes.
