From Cooking Light's 1991 Annual Cookbook. Prep and cook times do not include the time it takes to steep the vanilla and coffee beans.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup coffee beans
1 (2 inch) vanilla beans
2/3 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder
1/4 cup sugar, plus
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup frozen egg substitute, thawed
2 1/2 tablespoons kahlua
Directions:
1. Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan; remove from heat and add coffee beans. Split vanilla bean and remove seeds with back of knife; add vanilla bean and seeds to water. Let mixture stand 1 hour. Strain, reserving liquid. Discard vanilla and coffee beans.
2. Combine milk powder, sugar, unsweetened cocoa, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan, stirring well. Gradually add reserved vanilla liquid, stirring mixture until smooth. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly; boil 1 minute.
