CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY COFFEE

Steps:

• 1. In a coffee cup, heat water and coffee in the microwave until hot. I heated mine for 1 minute & 15 seconds, in a 1,000 watt microwave oven. (Or heat the water and coffee on top of the stove in a small saucepan.) Add the sugar, and stir.
• 2. Now add the chocolate covered cherry, stir well to dissolve. After the chocolate has dissolved, remove the cherry from the cup.
• 3. Top the coffee with desired amount of Reddi Wip, or Cool Whip. Place the cherry ontop the whipped topping, and serve.
• 4. *Note: Now a days when making this coffee, I use Sanka Naturally Decaffeinated Coffee. But if using ground coffee, use 2 teaspoons per each 2/3's cup of water in your coffee maker. Also, I have found that not all of the chocolate from the chocolate covered cherry, dissolves completely in the hot coffee. You may still see bits of chocolate floating in your cup.
