Anti-Infaticide Iced Coffee

Yep, I haven't posted a recipe SINCE FRIGGIN' MARCH! Please feel free to leave a snarky comment about how lazy I am right after you pull your weight and come over to my house and scrub the floor, because I think that is the only thing that I didn't get done today.

Seriously, I am just stoked that I found 10 minutes of "leisure time" to blog somewhere inbetween my 4 jobs, the endless dirty dishes, the 6 loads of laundry that I did today, and the constant containment of the swath of domestic destruction that my 2 little girls manage to leave in their wake.

Soo... if you're a seriously sleep deprived, frazzled house-husband like me, nothing takes away the tension of a hot afternoon spent with overtired and hungry little girls like large amounts of caffeine and sugar. And here is the perfect delivery system...
Anti-Infaticide Iced Coffee
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon hazelnut syrup
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
2 tablespoons evaporated milk
3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
6 frozen coffee ice cubes
1 cup RIDICULOUSLY strong chilled coffee

(Obviously you are going to plan a bit in advance to make coffee cubes and have extra coffee to chill. Just make another pot when you get up in the morning. But if you are as nonfunctional as I am in the morning, you will probably just end up drinking that pot as well. If so, make another pot of coffee when you get out of the shower. Make some coffee ice cubes and chill the rest cuz if you drink this pot you will just be peeing all day.)

Combine all ingredients in blender. Breathe deeply while the children scream. Pour into tall glass and add a few shots of Bailey's if you really need it. Sip slowly and notice how suddenly everything isn't so bad after all.
