Mocha, the flavor combination of coffee and chocolate, is quickly becoming a favorite flavor for coffees, icings, desserts and sauces. Here we have made a low fat mocha sauce and poured it over nonfat frozen yogurt.

| 1/3 | cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
| 1 | cup boiling water |
| 1/2 | cup sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon instant coffee granules |
| 1 | teaspoon vanilla |
| 1 | pint coffee-flavored nonfat frozen yogurt |
| 12 | whole coffee beans (optional) |
PREPARATION:
- Melt margarine in heavy saucepan over low heat. Add cocoa; cook and stir 3 minutes. Add boiling water, sugar and coffee; cook and stir until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Cool.
- Place 2 tablespoons frozen yogurt in bottom of each of 4 parfait glasses. Top each with 1 tablespoon sauce. Top sauce with another 2 tablespoons frozen yogurt; top frozen yogurt with 2 tablespoons sauce. Repeat layering twice more. Top each parfait with 3 coffee beans, if desired.
