Ice Cream

Espresso

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso

    Brew a fresh shot of espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Ensure the espresso is hot and freshly brewed for the best flavor.

  2. 2

    Scoop the Ice Cream

    In a serving glass or bowl, place 2 scoops of vanilla bean ice cream. Make sure to use a generous amount for a rich and creamy texture.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Combine the Ingredients

    Pour the hot espresso shot over the scoops of vanilla bean ice cream. The heat from the espresso will melt the ice cream slightly, creating a delicious blend of flavors.

  2. 4

    Serve Immediately

    Serve the affogato immediately while the espresso is hot and the ice cream is cold. Enjoy your dessert with a spoon or a straw!
