Ingredient Notes

Ingredients needed to make almond joy coffee creamer.

Here’s what you need to make this coffee creamer recipe:

Milk. I use fat free but any milk you like will do (skim, whole or even nondairy).
Unsweetened cocoa powder. Use a high quality cocoa for richest taste.
Sweetened condensed milk.
Almond extract.
Coconut extract. You can buy coconut extract online if you prefer. Also great addition to coconut biscotti and coconut cake!

Tips and Tricks

Homemade almond joy coffee creamer being poured into a mug of coffee.

Whisk together half a cup of the milk with the cocoa powder first. This step (while heating on the stove) helps the cocoa fully dissolve into the creamer so you don’t wind up with clumps.
Whisk remaining ingredients into the cocoa milk vigorously. Be sure they are fully incorporated.
Store in a mason jar. Don’t forget the lid!
Shake before serving. The ingredients may separate the longer the almond joy coffee creamer sits. Give everything a good shake to reincorporate.
Serve warm or cold. You can add this right to your coffee while it’s still warm or let it chill up in the refrigerator.

Recipe FAQs

How do you store homemade coffee creamer?

Store this coffee creamer in the refrigerator. Make sure to keep it in a container with a lid, like a mason jar or reusable glass bottle.

How long does homemade coffee creamer keep?

I recommend using your homemade coffee creamer within a week.

My creamer separated in the jar! What do I do?

This happens when the sugar begins to settle and is completely normal. Shake the jar vigorously and everything should combine again.

Can I substitute half and half or heavy cream for the condensed milk?

No, the sweetened condensed milk adds the sugar to this coffee creamer. Without it, all you’ll get is the bitter cocoa and extract taste (not exactly appealing).
