Method
Gelato Preparation
Scoop Gelato
Scoop 2 cups of Fior di Latte gelato into serving bowls and set aside.
Espresso Preparation
Brew Espresso
Brew 1 cup of espresso using your preferred method (espresso machine, stovetop, etc.).
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 0.25 tsp of salt, then set aside.
In another bowl, cream together 1 cup of unsalted butter, 0.5 cup of granulated sugar, and 0.25 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in 0.5 cup of chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
Assembly
Serve Affogato
Once the espresso is brewed and cookies are baked, pour the espresso over the scooped gelato in each bowl, and serve immediately with a chocolate chip shortbread cookie on the side.
