Heaven in a Punch Cup

Oh Lawh!  We went to the wedding of  Clay and Kellie Veal this morning at 11:00.  The reception was a full blown meal that consisted of all the favorites of the bride and groom.  We were served smoked Boston But, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, pasta salad, chip and dip. cream cheese cup cakes, red velvet cupcakes, baked beans, and potato salad.  The piece de resitance was one of the punches that was served.  It was called Southern Coffee Mocha Punch and to be honest it would send a diabetic into sugar overload.  I had to get the recipe and share it with you all because it would be great for a shower, luncheon, brunch....I took a small sip.  Frank had a whole cup and loved it.  Even the children were crazy about it.  If you are a coffee, frappe, latte, etc. drinker and you frequent places like Starbucks for those frozen coffee things....you will love this.

Southern Coffee Mocha Punch
Ingredients:
1 quart chocolate milk
1 can of condensed milk

1/2 gallon chocolate ice cream,
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream,
1/2 gallon coffee ice cream, all cubed and softened
2 quarts strong coffee, chilled
1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip, thawed
ground nutmeg (optional)
grated chocolate (optional)

Directions:
Combine first 6 ingredients in a punch bowl and stir until ice cream melts.

Garnish with dollops of whipped cream and sprinkle with nutmeg and or grated chocolate, if desired.  This fills one large punch bowl.  If there is more than your punchbowl holds just put the remainder in the fridge to add when the bowl starts getting empty....and it will...I promise.  I am telling you...it is truly heaven in a punch cup.
