Gifts In A Jar - Coffee Creamer



I'm going to include three recipes on this one. This is something I never actually sampled because the short answer is, I don't like coffee. The coffee creamer drinker in the house said they were good, but not sweet enough so more sugar had to be added after the fact. But, that was comparing it to White Death, as we so elegantly call the liquid coffee creamer / petroleum by-product that is typically consumed. I guess I shouldn't say much, I eat nutella like it's going out of style.

These recipes came from the Gourmet Coffee Shop.

Amaretto Coffee Creamer

3/4 C. Dry Coffee Creamer (like Coffee Mate)
1 Tsp. Almond Extract
1 Tsp. Cinnamon
3/4 C. Icing Sugar

Bavarian Mint Coffee Creamer

3/4 C. Dry Coffee Creamer
1/2 C. Cocoa
1 1/2 C. Icing Sugar
1/2 Tsp. Peppermint Extract

Gingerbread Coffee Creamer

2 C. Dry Coffee Creamer
1/2 C. Brown Sugar
1 Tsp. Ginger
1 Tsp. Cinnamon
1 Tsp. Allspice
1 Tsp. Nutmeg 
1 Tsp. Cloves

Directions

~Mix each batches ingredients in its own Ziplock back and shake bag and work with your hands to combine. (If pouring in any liquid, make sure to pour it onto a bed of the powders and don't just dump it in, and have it run down the sides of the bag as it won't mix properly).
~Scoop into jars and attach the following labels to each jar:

Amaretto Coffee Creamer

Stir 2 Tbsp. Creamer into 6 oz of hot coffee. 

Bavarian Mint Chocolate Creamer

Stir 2 Tbsp. Creamer into 6 oz hot coffee.

Gingerbread Creamer

Stir 2 Tbsp. Creamer into 6 oz hot coffee.

Enjoy
