How to Make Frozen Coffee Squares

  1. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine 1 cup strong brewed coffee and 10 ounces (280g) marshmallows. Cook, stirring frequently, until marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  2. (Alternative: Combine coffee and marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until marshmallows are melted and smooth.)
  3. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly until lukewarm.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks.
  5. Pour the mixture into an 8x8 inch baking pan lined with parchment paper (for easy removal).
  6. Freeze for at least 3 hours, or until firm.
  7. Before serving, sprinkle generously with 1/4 cup chocolate shavings or mini chocolate chips.
  8. Remove from the pan, lift out using the parchment paper, and cut into squares.
