Homemade Coffee Creamer
Love the flavor? But hate the mile long list of trans fats and other unnecessary ingredients? Try this sweet, creamy and decadent homemade version. Not only is it delicious and better for you, you can create flavors that ID only dreams of.
Make several batches and create a few flavors for variety in your daily cup. This would make a lovely hostess gift especially in a pretty mason jar, maybe topped with a little burlap and a pretty ribbon? Perfect for topping off a cup of coffee to enjoy with dessert. Wouldn't it be fun to make a coffee bar at your next party to serve up with several of your own flavors?

Well, I can’t use the sweetened condensed milk because I’m watching my carbs but I do have several flavors of sugar free coffee syrups and your recipes gave me some really great ideas on blending them with heavy cream and extracts to make some delicious coffee creamer! Thanks SO VERY MUCH! ☕
Ashleigh, so glad it was helpful! I plan on using coconut milk as a substitute as well which would definitely help keep the carbs lower too.
I am definitely going to try this it sound absolutely delicious. Thank you
Can I use this recipe to make ‘Tiramsu cream’ by using my Tiramasu juice that I buy by the wine bottle???
In another coffee creamer pin there was a recipe to make your own condensed milk. It really came out well. I used truvia in it.
