Ingredients
- 1/2 cup room temperature coffee
- 1 envelope (1/4 ounce) unflavored gelatin
- 1/4 cup coffee liqueur

- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups nonfat or light whipped topping

- 1-1/2 tablespoons shaved dark chocolate
Directions
- Place 2 tablespoons of the coffee in a blender. Sprinkle the gelatin over the coffee and let sit for 2 minutes.
- Bring the remaining coffee to a boil and pour over the mixture in the blender. Blend for 1 minute, until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
