Step 1

Place your half and half in a small pan and heat until steamy (155°F or 68°C).

Step 2

To make the espresso with an Aeropress, place a dampened paper filter into the filter basket and screw that onto the Aeropress. Place 2.5 tablespoons of finely ground coffee into the chamber. Pour 1.25 ounces of 175 degree F or 79 degrees C water on top. Stir with the stir stick, and then plunge the Aeropress down.

Step 3

Meanwhile, place your cocoa powder in your favorite mug. Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir until you have a fairly thick, very smooth mixture. Pour in half of the espresso and stir. Stir in the remaining espresso.

Step 4

Froth the hot milk using a handheld milk frother. Slowly pour the frothed milk into your mug. Whip your cream in a small bowl or cup with the milk frother until it's softly whipped. Spoon over your caffé mocha. Sprinkle with cocoa powder or chopped chocolate if desired. Enjoy!
