Base Ingredients

Optional Toppings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Brew the Espresso

    Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. Ensure that the coffee is fresh and hot.

  2. 2

    Scoop the Ice Cream

    In a serving glass or bowl, place 1 cup of vanilla ice cream. Use a large scoop for a generous serving.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Combine Espresso and Ice Cream

    Pour the hot espresso directly over the vanilla ice cream. The hot espresso will melt the ice cream slightly, creating a delightful mixture.

Garnishing

  1. 4

    Add Optional Toppings

    If desired, sprinkle chocolate shavings over the top, add a few coffee beans for decoration, and drizzle with caramel sauce for added sweetness.
