Instructions
For the Homemade Salted Caramel Sauce
- Combine the coconut cream, coconut sugar and salt in a saucepan.
- Whisk frequently over medium-high heat until you reach a boil.
- Once it boils, reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring frequently until the caramel becomes darker brown and thickens to a syrupy texture.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the coconut oil and vanilla extract. Set aside.
For the Frappuccino
- Swirl melted dark chocolate into a tall glass so that it coats the glass (this is for decoration purposes).
- Then pour 2 tablespoons of salted caramel sauce into the bottom of the glass.
- Using a blender, mix the ice cubes, coffee, milk, caramel sauce, and cocoa powder for about 30 seconds or until the ice is completely crushed.
- Pour the frappuccino into your glass. Top with Cocowhip topping and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
