Why you’ll love this samoa iced latte
Personally, I think samoa cookies are my top contender for the best Girl Scout cookie. Today, we’re taking the Samoa Girl Scout Cookie and turning it into coffee with this samoa iced latte! It starts with a homemade chocolate caramel sauce, which we’ll mix a little of with the espresso and line the cup with it as well. Then, we’ll mix some vanilla espresso with some sweetened coconut milk, and top it all off with coconut whipped cream. It’s all the best flavors mixed into one delicious latte, really! Just make sure to chill your can of coconut milk the night before to make the homemade coconut whipped cream the next day.
Papanicholas coffee


I’m partnering once again with my all time favorite coffee brand: papanicholas coffee for this samoa iced latte. I use their coffee beans every day and am so happy to be able to partner with them to spread the love of their coffee. In this recipe I used their french vanilla espresso beans which have flavor notes of vanilla bean and sweet cream. I definitely highly recommend trying some of their coffee, they have so many delicious flavors and are always the coffee I use in my recipes (and for my daily caffeine dose!). You can find their website by clicking here. Also, if you do end up purchasing their coffee be sure to use code FRESH20 for 20% off your coffee order!
Ingredients for a samoa iced latte
For the chocolate caramel sauce:
Granulated sugar: the base of the caramel.
Chocolate: use a baking bar for the best results. I used semi-sweet but milk chocolate would be great here as well.
Heavy whipping cream: thins out the caramel sauce.
Salt: helps balance and bring out the sweetness and flavor of the sauce, never skip on the salt!
For the coconut whipped cream:
Canned coconut milk: use a good-quality, full-fat canned coconut milk (I use thai kitchen!) Stick the can in the fridge the night before so that the fat solidifies at the top.
Heavy whipping cream: helps to thicken up the whipped cream.
Granulated sugar: to sweeten up the whipped cream.
For the latte:
Espresso: I recommend using a vanilla espresso, I used papanicholas french vanilla espresso.
Coconut milk: I recommend sweetened coconut milk for the best taste. Feel free to sub in your favorite dairy or non-dairy milk here if you’re not a fan of coconut milk!

Samoa Latte Q & A
How to store chocolate caramel sauce
- The yield on the chocolate caramel sauce is much greater than the amount you’ll need for just one samoa iced latte! The sauce will keep well in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 weeks. You might want to heat up the sauce a little bit before using as it does firm up in the fridge a bit.
Can I use instant espresso instead of brewed espresso?
- Definitely! Simply combine 60mL of hot water with the amount of instant espresso needed as stated on the packaging.
Why do you measure in grams?
My recipes are all written in grams because it is the most accurate way to bake. When you use a kitchen scale, you ensure that your baked goods turn out as close to the written recipe as possible. Plus, the cleanup is way easier when using a scale! I will provide standard cup measurements but please note that I have not tested the recipe using cup measurements and therefore can not guarantee your recipe will come out how mine did. Here is my favorite kitchen scale.
