Categories: Alcohol, Beverages, Company, Godiva, New (to be
     Yield: 8 servings

   1/4 c  Espresso Coffee Beans
     2 tb Unsweetened Cocoa Powder --
          (nonalkalized)
    14 oz Can Sweetened Condensed Milk
     3 c  Water
     1 ts Vanilla Extract
 1 1/2 c  Heavy Cream
     2 tb Granulated Sugar
     1 ts Vanilla Extract
 1 1/2 c  Crushed Ice
   1/2 c  Dark Rum -- (optional)
          Chocolate Shavings -- for
          Garnish

 Make the drink base:

 1. Crush the coffee beans coarsely with a rolling pin.
 In a medium saucepan, combine the crushed coffee
 beans, cocoa powder, and water. Bring to a boil over
 medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the
 heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes. Add the
 sweetened condensed milk and stir to combine.

 2. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a
 metal bowl set in a larger howl filled with ice water.
 Discard the coffee beans. Refrigerate the coffee
 mixture until well chilled, at least 2 hours. The
 coffee and cocoa bean drink may be brewed and chilled
 the day before.

 Assemble and garnish:

 1. In a chilled 4 1/2-quart bowl of a heavy-duty
 electric mixer fitted with the wire whip attachment,
 whip the cream, sugar and vanilla at medium-high speed
 until soft peaks begin to form. Fill a pastry bag
 fitted with a star tip (such as Ateco #6) with the
 whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to use.

 2. If desired, stir the rum into the mixture. Divide
 the mixture in half. Pour half into a blender
 container and add 3/4 cup of the crushed ice. Cover
 and blend at high speed for 30 seconds. Pour into 4
 tall 16-ounce glasses. Repeat with the remaining
 crushed ice and coffee mixture.

 3. Pipe a large rosette of whipped cream to float on
 top of the brewed coffee and cocoa bean drink. Garnish
 with the chocolate shavings. Serve immediately.

 8 Servings.

 PREPARATION: 20 minutes plus cooling time.
