WHITE CHOCOLATE MOCHA SAUCE
I am so excited! I finally found a recipe that I think tastes the same, if not better than Starbucks White Mocha!!! The recipe is on the inside of the wrapper for Ghirardelli White Chocolate bars-usually found in the baking aisle (not with the candy bars) This is unbelievably good! I keep mine in a mason jar. Heat my milk and stir in some to taste, add a couple shots of espresso and top with real whip cream.......I am so so so happy I found this recipe. It's going to save me so much money!
