Let’s be honest. Mom life isn’t easy. It’s fun, it’s rewarding, it’s worth every single moment but it’s down right exhausting! I have two very active kiddos, a 1 year old and a 3 year old, so it is literally non stop from the time they wake up in the morning to the time they go to sleep {sometimes not even then}. So, needless to say I drink a lot of coffee. Since becoming a Mom, I have become a hardcore coffee lover – not just the girlie frappes anymore – I like the strong stuff! So I was giddy with excitement when I was sent Dunkin’ Dark® coffee from Dunkin’ Donuts® to try at home. Find out more below about what I thought and where you can find Dunkin’ Dark® coffee and try the rich, smooth roast yourself!  Then scroll down for my tasty Bold Roast Coffee Flavored Breakfast Syrup recipe made with, you guessed it, Dunkin’ Dark® coffee! Pour this fragrant syrup over waffles or French toast for a special breakfast. It also makes a wonderful gift for the coffee lovers you know!
Dunkin’ Dark® coffee is Brewed for the Bold and boy do I fit the bill being a Mama of two who runs a blog business at home and runs the household, even when my husband was deployed!
 It’s not easy but it’s worth it. I have to be bold and inspired in my job and my life! 
 
Dunkin’ Dark® coffee is a rich, never bitter roast. 
It is smooth and strong and keeps me going throughout my busy day! 
Introducing new Dunkin’ Dark® K-Cup® Pods!
 
I love that Dunkin’ Dark® is available in grocery stores nationwide in both K-Cup® Pods and in 11oz and 18oz bags of ground coffee. I use both varieties but the K-Cups are so fast and easy I love them for when I want a cup o’ joe during the kiddo’s nap time {aka Mama sit and relax time}.

Bold Roast Coffee Flavored Breakfast Syrup 

Makes 1 ¼ cup

Ingredients

  • 1 cup strong brewed Coffee {I used Dunkin Donuts Dunkin’ Dark® coffee }
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ vanilla bean split or 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp butter optional

Instructions

  • Add freshly brewed coffee, brown sugar, and ½ a split open vanilla bean to a saucepan and heat over medium.
  • Whisk until smooth and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Butter adds another layer of richness to this syrup so I like to add 1 tbsp at the end and whisk in until melted.
  • If you are using vanilla extract add it with the butter at the end.
  • Pour into a jar and serve warm over French toast, pancakes, or waffles.

I use Dark Roast coffee {Dunkin’ Dark® coffee} since the flavor holds up well when cooking.
I wanted a bold coffee flavored syrup!
Brew one cup of dark roast coffee.
Add the freshly brewed coffee to a saucepan over medium heat then stir in brown sugar.
For this recipe I use half of a vanilla bean but you can also substitute vanilla extract.
Cut the vanilla bean in half then split down the middle with a knife. 
Whisk until smooth and bring to a boil. 
Then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, cook breakfast. I made Brioche Cinnamon French Toast.
Pancake and Waffles would also be delicious drizzled with this syrup.
Butter adds another layer of richness to this syrup!
Add 1 tbsp at the end of cooking and whisk in until melted. 
Pour into a jar and keep warm.
Serve warm over French toast, pancakes, or waffles.
 
This syrup is fragrant and rice but not too thick! Perfect for Sunday brunch at our home.
Bold Roast Coffee Flavored Breakfast Syrup also makes a 
wonderful gift for the coffee lovers you know!
