How to Make Heavenly Chocolate Espresso Spread
- Beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until light and fluffy using an electric mixer.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup strong brewed espresso (cooled), and a pinch of salt until smooth.
- Gently fold the cocoa mixture into the beaten cream cheese until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the spread to thicken.
