With nothing to prep ahead, this Affogato Coffee Dessert is one that you can prepare on the spot.
This is the perfect light ending to a meal. So much so that I find myself preparing it over and over again.
I originally thought to make this on Shavuos to give the men an extra boost of caffeine before going out to learn after a heavy fleishig meal.
The men had this with regular coffee, and the ladies enjoyed it with decaf.
It was so easy and so enjoyable. With nothing on my “ahead” to do list, this became our go-to Friday night dessert. Don’t we love those types of recipes?
And, I thought–with the hot coffee–this would also be perfect in the Sukkah.
Simply add the coffee and brown sugar to each serving bowl.
Add the hot water.
Then, add the ice cream and serve right away.
If serving a large crowd, prepare all the coffee before and leave it on blech, this way you can just pour it into the cups really quickly.
Want to make it a more complete dessert for company? It goes perfectly with chocolate cake. It’s the ideal complement.
