    Three Delicious Starbucks® Caffè Latte Flavors are Coming Home: Mocha, Vanilla and Caramel

    Being a coffee fanatic, I set out to find a great-tasting home latte.  I first looked at home latte machines, but I wasn’t too excited about losing counter space to another big kitchen item.  I’ve had my Keurig® machine for years and it always comes through: it makes great-tasting coffee and is perfect for families on-the- go like mine.  I was thrilled to hear that not only are there lattes available for Keurig® brewers, but that they’re also from Starbucks®!  I am stoked to be able to enjoy the unparalleled taste of Starbucks® Caffè Latte in the comfort of my robe or jammies right at home!

     

    One of the best things about the Starbucks® Caffé Latte K-Cup® pods  is that they come in three flavor varieties.  I’ve tried all three of them, here are my thoughts on each:

    Mocha - for me, a latte should always be creamy and the creamy mocha flavor and texture of the Mocha Caffè Latte  has a luscious taste that is spot-on.   I tend to reach for mocha when I want an after-dinner latte with a dessert.

    Caramel – I have a soft spot for caramel and have been ordering caramel lattes from Starbucks® for years.  I am picky about sweet flavors that I enjoy in the morning: fruit and orange juice are definitely ok and so is a bit of caramel in my latte.  The Caramel Starbucks® Caffè Latte K-cup® smells and tastes great, and I add a touch of creamer, which, in my opinion, results in the perfect latte taste.  My husband loves it without any creamer.  I like how the caramel isn’t overly sweet.

    Vanilla – for those of you who like a full vanilla latte flavor, this one is for you!  I wasn’t sure what the at-home brewing experience would bring, but each cup is flavorful with bold taste.

    I made a coffee cake that contains no coffee but pairs wonderfully with any of these Starbucks® Caffè Latte.  The time I save from using a Keurig® helps me be more productive, which sometimes results in a nice dessert for my family.  Cakes are always better with something to wash them down, be it milk, a port wine at night or a creamy latte at any meal.  So whether it’s washing down a nice breakfast cake or an after-dinner dessert, a latte for your morning routine or an afternoon treat to get you through the day, I highly recommend you try out Starbucks® Caffé Latte K-Cup® pods.

    Stir, Sip, Enjoy. Signature Starbucks® latte flavors, now available in a K-Cup®

    Total Time 40 mins
    Servings 6 -8

    Ingredients
     

    • Coffee Cake recipe
    • For Coffee cake:
    • ½ cup butter
    • ¾ cup white sugar
    • 3 eggs
    • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 2 teaspoons baking powder
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • For streusel topping:
    • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
    • ⅔ cup light brown sugar
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • ¼ cup butter
    • For Chocolate Ganache :, *optional
    • ½ cup   semi-sweet baking chocolate
    • ½ cup cream

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer for about 4 minutes. Add eggs one egg at a time, as well as vanilla and sour cream/Greek yogurt. In a separate bowl: Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the flour into the butter and sugar mixture.  Stir together with a mixer on low speed until well combined.
    • To make the streusel topping:  In a medium-sized bowl combine flour, sugar, cinnamon and butter.  Stir to blend.   Spread the flour mixture into a pan then sprinkle with streusel mixture. Bake in the oven for about 30-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
    • *Optional: I like to serve my coffee cake with chocolate ganache and use chocolate ganache to garnish the cake. Simply pour chocolate ganache over the top of the cake.
    • To make chocolate ganache:  Heat cream in a small saucepan, then simmer. Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate.
