- Put a mason jar in the freezer (this is for making the cream topping.  If you'd rather use whipped cream, skip this step). 
- Make a pot of strong coffee. 
- While the coffee is brewing, make yourself a batch of hot chocolate.  We recommend something homemade and creamy, but any hot chocolate will work. 
- Pour your hot chocolate into the bottom 1/3rd of your mug. 
- Pour your coffee over the back of a spoon into the mug, filling to 2/3rds full. 
- Put your heavy cream into the chilled mason jar and close. 
- Shake until the cream thickens slightly. 
- Pour cream over the back of a spoon, filling the mug completely. 
- Top with chocolate shavings.
