Once a month, my girlfriend and I try to get together at each other’s houses for brunch. It’s a great time to eat, catch up on each other’s lives and spend time together. This month is at my house and I was so excited to try a new recipe – chocolate caramel coffee cake! 

So before brunch, I headed over to my local Walmart for a few ingredients. See the ingredients and instructions for my delicious Chocolate Caramel Coffee Cake below!

While I was at Walmart getting ingredients, I saw something in the milk section that looked amazing. These International Delight® creamers! They come in three yummy flavors: HERSHEY’S® Chocolate Caramel, REESE’S® Peanut Butter Cup, and Almond Joy™.

I grabbed the Hershey Chocolate Caramel and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup to go with my chocolate caramel coffee cake. Also, who doesn’t love candy in their coffee?! My motto is “is there a REESE’S® Peanut Butter Cup in your mug? There should be.”

I’m happy to say the chocolate caramel coffee cake was delicious and a hit at brunch! I’ll definitely be making it again soon since it was so yummy and went great with the HERSHEY’S® Chocolate Caramel creamer!
