Affogato al Caffe

Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • 2 scoops vanilla ice cream (chocolate or coffee ice cream is also delicious)
  • 1 shot brewed espresso coffee
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • dollop of whipped cream (the one in the spray can is perfect for this use)
  • dash of cocoa powder and ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Brew your espresso and set aside.
    (if you have an espresso machine rather than a Moka style coffee brewer, you can simply scoop out your ice cream into the glass and then brew the coffee right over the ice cream)
  • Place ice cream in a large glass and then, pour espresso over it.
    Drizzle maple syrup on top, add a dollop of whipped cream and dashes of cocoa and cinnamon.
  • Serve with a teaspoon and enjoy immediately.

Notes

*optional add ins: a spoonful of coffee liqueur, nut liqueur, Irish Cream or Grappa
