Coffee Ice Cream (Affogato Style)
A creamy coffee ice cream served affogato style with a shot of hot espresso for an indulgent Italian-inspired dessert.
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
FREEZING TIME 6 hours hrs
- 250 ml whole milk
- 250 ml heavy cream
- 80 g granulated sugar
- 50 ml strong brewed coffee or espresso cooled
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 shots of hot espresso for serving
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sugar, cooled coffee, and vanilla extract until the sugar dissolves.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze for 1 hour. Stir vigorously to break up ice crystals, then return to the freezer. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for 4 hours until creamy and frozen.
Scoop the ice cream into small cups or bowls.
Pour a shot of hot espresso over the ice cream just before serving for the classic affogato experience.
