I don’t know about you, but coffee has become one of the most important things in my life in the morning. It’s so much a staple in this house a few weeks ago I was standing in the shower and my husband comes in and says ” Would you like your coffee delivered here?”

And I did.

And it’s not that it just wakes me up, I love coffee for all the OTHER reasons. The amazing and different flavors, the tasty treats you can add to it and the fact that it goes with breakfast, lunch, dinner and is super effective as a dessert.

Which is why I wanted to share with you this totally tasty coffee treat that has just the right amount of pick-me-up combined with sweetness to make you feel like you are sitting in a cafe in France. And I should know since I just went there this past September.
