== Notes, Tips, and Variations ==
 
−
* Measurements shouldn't be taken to be precise, play with the amounts to your likings

−
* Coffee is optional. Addition is to taste.

===Vegan Variation===
 
−
Remove the milk, remove the chocolate sprinkles(unless you have vegan ones) and replace the butter by 2/3 [[Soy|soy]] butter and 1/3 [[Margarine|margarine]], or just all margarine.
