  • Saucepan

Ingredients
  

Gold Dust Coffee Base

  • 2 shots espresso freshly brewed
  • 1 cup milk whole or oat milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup adjust sweetness if needed
  • 0.25 teaspoon edible gold dust for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar optional sweetness
  • 0.5 cup whipped cream optional topping

Instructions
 

  • Brew the espresso until rich and aromatic. Divide it evenly between two coffee mugs.
  • Heat the milk gently in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in vanilla syrup and brown sugar.
  • Froth the warm milk mixture lightly until creamy with soft foam. Avoid overheating for silky texture.
  • Pour the frothy milk slowly into the espresso. Stir gently for balanced flavor throughout each cup.
  • Top with whipped cream and edible gold dust before serving. Enjoy immediately while warm and glamorous.

Notes

Froth longer for thicker foam or less for smoother texture. Freeze leftover espresso into cubes for chilled coffee versions later. Pour milk slowly during assembly for prettier layers. Customize flavors with caramel, cinnamon, or hazelnut syrup. Store leftover vanilla milk refrigerated for two days.
