"Taste and see that the Lord is good." Psalm 34:8 **** I am so thankful for cupcakes and ice cream, but most of all God's goodness and mercy that He gives us through His Son Jesus Christ.

Skinny Vanilla Iced Cappuccino
I absolutely love coffee. I can hardly function if I don't have my morning cup. I would love to enjoy my morning cup while relaxing, but the reality is that I usually grab it in a to-go cup and drink it on my way to work. The down-side to drinking it on the way to work is that summers are so hot in south Alabama, and hot coffee makes it almost impossible to cool off (even with my AC going full speed).
Then I thought, "Why not make iced coffee?!?" That way I could be caffeinated and cool off at the same time. This recipe is very versatile. I used vanilla flavoring in this batch, but you could play with flavors according to the season. I can't wait to try a pumpkin version when the pumpkin creamer comes out. Oh, and peppermint around Christmas time... get creative!
Skinny Vanilla Iced Cappuccino
Ingredients:
5 cups strongly brewed (or double brewed) coffee
14-ounce can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
2 cups fat-free half-and-half
3 teaspoons vanilla extract or flavoring
Directions:
Brew 1 pot of strongly (or double)-brewed coffee. Bring to room temperature.
Measure 5 cups of cooled coffee into a pitcher. You can use any leftover coffee to make coffee-ice cubes.
Add sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half, and vanilla to coffee in pitcher. Mix well and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.
