Recipe Tips
- Chill the tasting glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes before serving to keep the drinks cold.
- Use a handheld frother for the peanut butter pour to ensure a smooth, grit-free texture.
- Check the labels on caramel sauce and toffee bits to ensure they meet gluten-free requirements if necessary.
Make It Your Own
For a crowd: Scale the chocolate base by doubling or tripling the initial ingredients. Prepare the flavor additions in larger batches and use a funnel to pour multiple flights simultaneously for efficient service.
Easy swaps: Substitute oat milk for whole milk for a creamier, dairy-free alternative. Use almond butter instead of peanut butter for a different nutty profile. Swap peppermint extract for orange extract for a chocolate-orange variation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make the base ahead of time?
Yes, the chocolate base can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
How do I ensure the toffee is gluten-free?
Always check the label of commercial toffee bits, as some may contain barley malt or be processed in facilities with wheat.
Can this be served hot?
While designed as a chilled flight, these flavor combinations also work well as a warm hot chocolate flight.
