This recipe comes to us from the folks at Dreyer's Ice Cream. Did you know that you can tour the Dreyer's plant in Union City, California and learn how ice cream was made? Follow this link to read all about it!

If you want a richer sundae, you could use regular ice cream here, but using a fat free frozen yogurt makes this a guilt free treat!

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/3 cup water 1/2 cup sugar 2-3 tsp. instant coffee or espresso fat free or low fat frozen yogurt (Dreyer's Coffee Fudge Sundae is a good one) or ice cream nonfat, low fat or regular whipped topping (optional) fat free cookies or biscotti (optional)

If cocoa has lumps, sift or press through a fine mesh sieve (to avoid a lumpy sauce). Set aside. In a small saucepan, bring water and sugar to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil gently for about 1 minute. Remove pan from heat and whisk in instant coffee or espresso until dissolved. Whisk in cocoa until thoroughly incorporated and smooth. Scoop ice cream or frozen yogurt into coffee cups or dessert dishes. Spoon on warm espresso sauce and top with a dollop of whipped topping if desired. Serve with a cookie.
