Affogato-Drowned Vanilla Ice Cream





Affogato means "drowned" in Italian. Affogato is a coffee based dessert whereby a scoop of vanilla gelato drown in a shot of espresso. Now you know why the dessert called drowned in Italian. There are some variations of affogato which includes a shot of amaretto. Being a non-alcoholic, i opted for the basic recepi without compromising on the taste. .

Creamy vanilla ice cream drowned in a strong espresso coffee is something i can't resist. The hot coffee and cool ice cream just melt in my mouth.  Serve with a cookie or wafer.

1 big scoop of vanilla gelato/ice cream
